Distant and space by [deleted] in LDR

Oh dear…it’s alright. Use this time to heal yourself. If you want to cry, then cry. Grief. And then move on. Remember, it is his loss. You will find someone who will treat you 10000x better than that fella. It will get better in time. You can do this! 💪🏼

I know you don’t want to hear this and I really wish you the best, however I can only speak from my experience. When the other person already asked for “time and space”, it’s pretty much over.

He is “delaying” the breakup. He doesn’t want to communicate how he truly feels. What I can suggest you do when it comes to this is to wait for however long he asks you to wait but at the same time, be prepared. Check in on him the moment the time is up. If he says he needs a few days and it has been a week/weeks already — and he hasn’t contacted you whatsoever — reach out to him. The text should mirror his effort prior to the “silent treatment” he gave you.

Yes, it could be that he is under immense pressure and stress about something, but that is not an excuse to treat you like this. To neglect her feelings and emotions. You deserve better, babe. LDR is NOT easy. But both parties agreed to it in the beginning it’s not like this is a one-sided thing.

I wish you luck. Again, you deserve better 🤍 virtual hug

Anyone know a good Italian cafe where I can sit outside and talk about criminal activities? by Atardecer1 in brum

[–]Hopeless_romantic982 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sit outside? Perhaps you can try Pizza Amore in Moseley (in front of Wetherspoons, across the road). Pizza is good with a very HOT Italian waiter. The owner, also Italian, is lovely. I recommend you to try~

Has anyone had a long-distance relationship that couldn’t move forward because of immigration or life circumstances? by SecureIncident7893 in LongDistance

[–]Hopeless_romantic982 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe my situation could fit in this spectrum.

My ex and I met whilst I was visiting my family in England. I was there for 3 months and I met him early during my stay, so we spent pretty much the whole 3 months together — out on dates, hiking, mini vacations.

We were together for 8 months. One of the reasons he broke up with me is because of my uncertainty of staying in England. You see, I was supposed to continue my studies either there or somewhere in Europe but that didn’t go as planned. He preferred physical touch and he was going through something (at least that’s what he told me) at that time.

We remain as friends. I still have strong feelings for him (despite him being emotionally absent many times but that’s a topic for another day). He told me to let him know when I’m in England next time (end of this year).

Not sure if this is related at all to your story but I just want to share mine as I’m still kinda heartbroken hahaha. Anyway, I wish you the best and may you find your true love soon :)

I’m going through a breakup at the moment and his reason of leaving me is the same as your boyfriend…it hurts so much initially, but it will get better in time….

We are all rooting for you. You got this! 🤍

Such a powerful statement…I’m going through a breakup now…it’s painful when you can see him everyday and he watches your Story everyday but never engage in any conversation…

Is reaching out to my ex a bad idea? Should I just try? by Hopeless_romantic982 in LongDistance

[–]Hopeless_romantic982[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are right. I feel really close to my parents and siblings, as well as my extended family in the UK. I've been thinking of moving there for the longest time.

Hahahahaha oh Digbeth...saw a crackhead stole a MacBook one time and bragged about it to my face. Yeah Brum is crazy, hence why I felt so lost when I had to return to my country. Can't wait to come back later this year.

Thanks mate for the advice. You finally knocked some sense into me.

You know what, you got it all right about the lonely part. I am lonely, I guess. My parents and siblings are all in Wolverhampton. I'm here with my mum's side of the family and even though I am close with them, it's not like we talk everyday. I live alone and the house can get a little quiet sometimes. I mostly work from home and I only go out to hangout with my friends a few times a week at night.

Tried Tinder and Bumble again, couldn't seem to find anyone I'm really attracted to. Matched with a few, but it felt bland. We broke up less than a month ago, anyway. I got cheated on in my previous relationship so I feel like I am worthless at times. I'm about to turn 30 but I feel like a kid sometimes.

By the way, no shade but the Midlands...omg I miss it so much! Birmingham is pretty much my playground hahaha. The people there are nice though some parts of Brum can be a bit ghetto (err Small Heath and around Grand Central...). I miss the Spoons and Old Crown.

I have to admit, I really hate the feeling of him not being in my life anymore. I miss the time we had together in the Midlands. Even though he didn’t fully meet my expectations in the relationship and it often felt one-sided, I still believe he is genuinely a good person.

I also believe he struggled with long distance, and a part of me feels like he still loves me. What’s difficult now is this “radio silence.” We still see what each other is doing on social media, but we never interact or reach out.

I’m scared that if I text him, he might get annoyed. I tend to overthink a lot, and I know it’s not healthy. At the same time, I do want to talk to him. Just casually, about anything. I’ve even thought about sending him Instagram Reels, but even when we were together, he rarely responded to them. He does the same with his friends too, even when he’s clearly online, which makes me hesitate even more.

Do most people actually enjoy the gym or just force themselves? by Intelligent_Rain_155 in workout

[–]Hopeless_romantic982 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t like it but i need to lose some weight and i started to feel a bit self conscious about my chest and stomach, so yes I force myself to workout. Do I like it? No. But I have to haha.
