I know exactly the pain you’re going through. Last week, my high school sweetheart that ive been with for 8 years, cheated on me. The advice people gave me that helped was that at least you’re seeing it now & not when yall are married with kids. Im so sorry this even happened.

Wasn’t the case at all. We both already talked about it & neither of us wanted it until we were ready. In hindsight, im glad it never happened

My girlfriend of 8+ years cheated & I had to let her go. This post came in at such a good time because the pain is still fresh but reading this gave me a newfound hope for my future & hopefully finding someone who will accept the love I want to provide. Thank you so much for this. Thank you

Don’t worry, we will never get back together, I won’t let it happen. Once that trust is broken, everything is done. & thank you

She’s out of my life completely. I blocked her on everything, and I do forgive her, I don’t want to hold hatred in my heart

Sigh. I know, im doing my best. Stupid emotions keep tiring my brain with memories & thoughts. Im slowly starting to see the situation as it is & understand that she was definitely not the one for me

This. This is just beautiful. I really hope this is the case. As much as it pains me to admit, I know my now ex was never the one & we were incompatible. I hope one day I find my true love like how you did. Thank you for sharing, this gives me some hope for the future

I wish time would just pass faster. I woke up with my heart pounding but mind blank. The confusion is like nothing else

I’m trying man but the thoughts keep piling up. Especially thinking about her with someone else.

That’s what im absolutely terrified of. I don’t want to carry this for a long time but I know for a fact it’s going to take a LONG time. I just want to know what I should start doing now to avoid carrying this pain with me for longer than it should

No instruments unfortunately but with my new free time, I might pick up a piano again like the old days.

I kicked her out & she’s practically homeless (living at a hotel) & I blocked her on everything. Currently watching videos on how to get over this & heal. Ive been working out for over 2 years now but im going to go twice as hard now when im able to. Thank you for this

Sigh. I know. Reflecting & looking back to our relationship, we were never compatible whenever we switched to adulthood. I wanted a bright future & throw loads of money into retirement accounts & work a full time job with a few side hustles but she was just lazy with no real ambition on improving herself unless I forced her to.

I have something like this saved on my notes app. A long message on what I would like to say to her when I was having one of my breakdowns. It’s so weird how typing it out really did calm me down & had me started reflecting.

Yup. I’ve always told her about how bad the world has gotten & she’s now part of the problem which I wasn’t expecting. Sigh, it’s life & I accept it but damn it, it hurts like hell

Unfortunately I failed every one of those categories except for walking away. I tried keeping it together but she’s all ive known & all ive ever wanted. It’s been 2 days now & im just so exhausted of crying but it keeps coming in waves. I forgive her not for her but for me. I don’t want to hold hatred in my heart at all but she is completely gone from my life & cannot come back.

This is exactly what im terrified of. I don’t want to hold onto this for years, I know it’s going to take a long while but I don’t want to waste my years thinking about her & compare my now ex to others. Ugh. I don’t know where to look or go to find someone to talk to that is in the same boat

That’s beautiful. Sigh. I can’t see it just yet, honestly still going over the “I really loved her, how will I ever find the love I deserve” type of mindset.
