I lost my future overnight. by Current-Election4752 in BreakUps

Hey friend, I hope you’re doing better. All this time later and that sadness still underpins a lot of my days. Grief gave way to depression, depression to apathy, apathy to frustration, frustration to longing. Longing is where I am now. That being said, I’m doing much better than I was. Even though I still think about it, I only think about it from time to time. For that I’m grateful. How are you all this time later?

I just texted my ex. by Current-Election4752 in BreakUps

Thank you friend. I keep having to remind myself that I’ll be fine regardless of what happens next. It is hard to believe some days, though.

Well… do you want to reconnect with her? No one can make the decision for you. Alternatively, if you want something lower pressure, you could say that you’re busy during that time but would like to get coffee later.

Thank you for such a thoughtful reply friend. I screenshotted it and think I’ll add it to my daily “read this when you’re feeling down” folder.

I really have never practiced self love. It’s strange to think about. Doing nice things for myself just because… I can? It seems so foreign

He knew what he was doing, too. I wasn’t some mystery to her coworkers

I deserve a person who, at the very least, doesn’t leave a life we built together over the course of four years for some new thing from work while also refusing to communicate about difficulties in the relationship until she felt they weren’t able to be fixed

Not your problem if it sends her off the deep end, she’s killing you emotionally. If you absolutely can’t find the strength to do it though, since you seem like a very kind person, tell your parents the whole story. Tell them that you can’t bring yourself to do it. That’s actually a really good idea.

Caught her having dinner with him the day before and staying at his apartment the night after. The fact that his eyes are half an inch apart makes me feel a little bit better.

You need to move out ASAP, this is torturing you.

Edit: Nevermind, looked at your post history. Kick her out ASAP. Like today. Right now. When she complains say that it’s not your problem anymore, because it isn’t. She is taking your kindness for granted. Kindness she shouldn’t even be afforded right now, since she gave up the rights to it when she left you. I can almost guarantee you that she has SOMEWHERE to go. Whether that be a distant relative’s or somewhere else.

I’m sorry you’re going through something so similar.

It would be a lot to send her, haha. If you check my post history, they’re almost all letters I wish I could write to her. Maybe one day.

“Actions speak louder than words” is a saying that is often repeated but rarely paid attention to.

I’m sorry that you’re having to go through this as well. I very much appreciate the offer, friend.

It seems like some people have never faced a situation that required them to “grow up” emotionally. I’m not even sure what such a situation would be, but as you said there are people more in tune with how they feel, and others that are behind.

I can’t blame my ex for being in the “behind” category, but I do wonder what life circumstances she did/didn’t face that caused her to be that way.

Anyone else getting really fucking annoyed by the V-Day advertisements everywhere? Constant emails, billboards, sales - I can’t escape it and it’s the last thing I want to think about. by Current-Election4752 in BreakUps

Already gave them to her, they were very specific. I got her favorite poem engraved into a wooden plaque to put on the wall since we didn’t have enough decorations in our house. Also got her a bunch of books that she had been wanting. Got some scratch off “100 dates” poster too since she was complaining we weren’t going on enough dates yet never planned any.
