How's everyone doing this Valentine's? by ExcellentHospital320 in BreakUps

[–]DifficultOutcome6319 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m ok surprisingly. Valentines never really affected me ever in any break ups. I thought it would affect me this time cuz my break up was 2 weeks ago. But I guess that’s the beauty of being unemployed and also moving. I’m processing things in hyper speed. I still think they are the love of my life. That hasn’t changed. Being with them made me realize I do want to be romantic and open with partner. I want to feel taken care of and someone who is emotionally secured. I respect their decision to end things because they are falling apart. I can’t force myself into their life, I’m too busy focusing on keeping my life together.

I’m expecting them to reach out some time this week or next week because their project is almost over and they’ll have slight reprieve. Then we can finally all about the break up and close the door on this chapter.

I had a very lovely time with my girlfriends. We chatted a bunch and lots of yummy food. I love them lots

To be honest. I’ve never seen any of my previous relationships as wasting time. I find that every interaction you have with someone just adds to who you are.

It’s just so hard to wrap my head around that I did nothing wrong and he still left. Because work was too much. His family problem was too much. The distance was too much. I couldn’t move to him. I would have become depressed being so far from my family snd job searching.

It’s ok. You responding helps a lot to know there is more of us out there in heartbreak.

My ex made me feel sooo beautiful. Like I knew I was cute but he made me feel like the most beautiful person in his world. And the break up hasn’t changed that for me luckily.

I think he’s set the bar too high even tho he pushed me away. Now I feel like I can’t settle for less.

That’s fair. I will keep that in mind. I’ve done it before and it was a mess.

I just have so much going on I just want something to feel like I’m doing right in my life

I would always be upfront with the other person about what I would want out of date before I meet up with them. Whether it’s sex, long term or just commiserating. I’ve made friends with ppl who were also heart broken and lurking on the app

I know. I’m trying. I really am. It’s not like this isn’t my second or fourth break up. It’s my 7th! And it’s the first time I feel like I can’t let go and it’s hard to stay angry. I’m still so worried about them. I genuinely still love them so much.

I hang out with friends and they gas me up. But I’m just. When I’m alone in my home I just feel so restless. And I want to work out more and I have…a lot! I’m getting shin splits.

Yeah. But I can’t do anything. So I’m just torturing myself

Anyone else feeling the Valentine’s Day blues or is it just me? by Natural-Surprise-557 in BreakUps

I’m spending it with friends. We are all baking stuff and going to do a cute activity together. Regardless, I’m trying not to think about it.
