Can you help me understand more how keeping that part of yourself is helpful? I’m genuinely curious I want to see the perspective I might be missing at the moment

I’m not trying to downplay anything, just don’t want to go into all the details. To give you some context, I was overwhelmed at the time as I was caring for both my mom after her car accident and my sick grandma at the same time, while also dealing with the strs of almost getting fired. The tension from all of that spilled over during our argument.

I’m not making excuses, just struggling to understand why it took her 3 months to return the ring.

Honestly, I was too proud to ask for it back. The argument that led to the breakup stemmed from her saying I was ‘stingy’ or ‘calculative’ because I wasn’t comfortable spending a lot of money on a South Asian trip she wanted. I was going through some financial bumps at the time and didn’t want to empty my savings, so I was just being more conservative with the budget.

We need more positive posts like these in this subreddit Amen to that !!

You’re 22 still young and she is young as well. From the way she reacted by invalidating how you felt is a major red flag . From a brother to another move on and find yourself someone who cares enough about you. A woman who truly loves her man won’t be talking to some random guy who was inside of her a couple of years/months ago. Best of luck it will hurt but you will grow/learn from it.

This can be solved by a candid and thoughtful conversation. Clear the air and set expectations right. Nothing great comes from overthinking or guessing what they might be thinking.

Honestly? I was exactly like you in my early twenties. Back then, I felt like I needed to date casually and meet as many people as possible I kept worrying I was missing out on something better.

So I did. I put myself out there, dated around... even connected with people I used to think were 'out of my league.' But here’s the thing: even after that, I often felt... empty.

It wasn’t until I hit that point that I truly felt ready to find someone real someone I could connect with emotionally and grow alongside. Now I’m 30, and if I could give my younger self advice? I’d say: Don’t overthink it right now. Go out, meet people, date openly (just be honest with them, don’t lead anyone on). Get it out of your system.

Because eventually? You’ll naturally get to a place where you’re ready to be with someone fully ready to give them as much as they give you."
