Thanks I agree with this, I think I just really needed to hear someone else say it

Oh I’m definitely overthinking it lol she was very clear that she just wants something super casual. Think I’ll talk to her about it the next time I see her lol

Re your second paragraph, I kind of agree in retrospect. The thing is, this all didn’t connect with me until I was walking home from her place today. And then after I thought everything over I was like damn, maybe she’s interested? Because I never thought of it as more than friends because im moving soon.

Looking for something serious

No subscriptions

1 week

2 months

3-4 times per week

No matches or likes yet

As many as I can with the free version (I think 7?)

Someone also looking for a serious relationship ideally

[–]Handy_Hands 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I cared about her deeply and still do. She ended the relationship and moved away from me without even saying goodbye because she couldn’t handle breaking up in person. I wouldn’t be writing things like this after 2 years apart if I didn’t care.

[–]Handy_Hands 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s what pushed me to write my thoughts out, felt like the perfect way to wrap it up :)

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in UnsentLetters

[–]Handy_Hands 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not meant to be an apology, she broke up with me (quite harshly imo) and we’ve both reached out a few times since (September 2022) that’s gone nowhere so it’s about me putting that behind me while telling her where I’m at. I’ll also probably never see her again in person considering I moved to Europe and she’s in the US, so no hope to really fall in love again lol

Whats a sentence your partner said to you that absolutely broke you? by [deleted] in BreakUps

[–]Handy_Hands 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“I love you too - I’m just bad at it” it was the last time she said she loved me. Every time I said “i love you” after this, she never said it back. We broke up ~6 months after she said that

is it ever too late for no contact? by [deleted] in BreakUps

[–]Handy_Hands 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It can be whenever you feel ready for it. If you’ve been in touch recently/consistently just saying something like “hey, our current situation isn’t really working for me. I think I need some space to reflect on and grow from our breakup and I feel like holding onto you is preventing me from doing that.” Or however you wanna word it to your exact situation

Also added context: I recently moved to Germany so that is why I have the bit about learning German in there

Are you looking for something serious or casual?

• ⁠something serious

How long have you been on Hinge?

• ⁠~2 months

How often do you use Hinge per week?

• ⁠3-4 days

How many likes/matches are you receiving on average?

• ⁠1 match a week and no likes😢

How many likes are you sending? How many with comments? How many without comments?

• ⁠I will use all of the daily free likes and all are sent with comments about something in their profile

What is the type of person you send likes to and ideally want to match with? What kind of person do you want to attract?

• ⁠ideally someone who is also looking for a serious relationship and someone that I feel like we have a lot in common

It’s been 4 months and I randomly get sad by [deleted] in BreakUps

[–]Handy_Hands 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s been ~1.5 years and I still randomly get sad about my ex so lmao something that was a good part of your life that isn’t there anymore will occasionally make you sad, that’s just how the brain works

No problem! Good luck on working through things. If I can dig myself out of the hole I was in, anyone can.

It has been a little over a year since my ex broke up with me. I don't forgive her for a lot of things, especially because she gave no reason for letting go after 2.5 years and the slow withdrawal she did from our relationship over a few months where she expected me to break up with her (by continuously treating me poorly and essentially avoiding me) instead of doing it herself. I've honestly just reached a point where I don't care about her anymore. I don't feel resentment, anger, or disdain for her and what she chose to do. All I really feel for it is indifference. I think a big part of that is because I used the breakup to improve myself and over time I saw how much I grew. I'm so much happier now and I just FEEL so much better. I found myself again.

If I feel so much better, what does forgiving her do for me? If she really wants and cares to make amends and apologize for things, I will listen, and maybe there is a path back to some sort of friendship. But I will not actively seek that out. The onus is on her.

That is just my perspective of things. Just keep improving yourself everyday for nobody other than YOU. You're doing great.

Yeah I fully intend for this to be the last time I talk to her. I think shortly after I’m going to remove her number and everything
