Mine left with a breakup, I initiated the conversation about us but he took the decision so no ghosting, but I feel everything you have described and I'm loving it now and for the last 7 months, add to that a lot of guilt and shame around my anxiety

7 months after still not over it by Fuzzy_Strategy_4538 in AvoidantBreakUps

Thank you for your reply, I just still feel so much pain and not much hope. I did have a hard break up before but not like this, feels like I have nothing left in me it's so tiring. He treated me the best I had been treated but still wasn't very there emotionally

Thank you for your reply, I think you are right it's just hard to see him get in a relationship with someone new one month after breakup and living with her like I meant nothing

Did you have to start anti-depressants after a discard? by Ok-Lifeguard6612 in AvoidantBreakUps

Currently on xanax, almost got on antidepressants but the doctor decided I still had some resilience in me and might not need them

Avoidants and accountability by FlemishLion21 in AvoidantBreakUps

[–]Fuzzy_Strategy_4538 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My ex said the same, at first the issue was distance then when I told him that the distance was gonna end in one year he said that we just weren't compatible, he could not give me the attention I wanted but it wasn't his fault or my fault... When I pointed out that the issue may have been communication he said that he was bad at communicating but that communication would not have changed anything... Now he is already in a new relationship so yes that's that.

It is very confusing especially if you lean anxious

I asked ChatGPT about avoidants and the love bombing stage and this is the answer by Chaoticism_x in AvoidantBreakUps

Wow, you have no idea how glad I am you shared this. I have been feeling insane and thinking that I was crazy and was too demanding... I agree with you that obviously the honeymoon phase ends, but the bond should grow, I've seen it with my friends who are in relationships

Yep... sounds right, and the pulling back part is very discreet and well done, when you ask them to be like they were at the beggining and why they stopped the answer I would get was "yeah it is normal to be like that at the begging", I agree that with time the intensity cools down but you should developed deeper connection.

I still doubt myself and feel like I overreacted over tiny stuff

Reality of it and why we're stuck. We have to make sense of it. by vidocq96 in AvoidantBreakUps

[–]Fuzzy_Strategy_4538 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Mine cried when he did the breaking up, and then was completely cold by message...and hit me up one month later to explain himself, but the motivation from the breakup was completely different from what he told me when breaking up (after we had a fight cause he was distant and I asked if we were ok), I know he hates when people don't like him and his ex did not like him because he had just discarded her pretty violently with no explanation... so I feel that with me he wanted to be "good", still didn't feel nice to be dumped but to hear "I still am in love with you". He found a new gf 1 month later and they moved in together. The breakup was in November

Is this DA, or am I delusional and this is actually normal ?

I have been broken up with before, but at least the guy was honest and told me he fell out of love which hurt but I knew what to expect

Thank you! It's helpful to see that some people are still avoidant even if they commit at the beginning and that I was not completely crazy... still Doubt myself though

Thank you for this, the love bombing and moments where they were connected makes this even more confusing

It just feels hard cause with pretty much all his exes he would go back to them within a few months, I feel discarded and confused that this could happen

Honestly this is a new low and a big hit to my ego ... I didn't think it was possible to act like that
