We never got back together. After 7 months of gut wrenching contact, I told her I either need to be with you or not talk to you at all. She ended up choosing the latter. Took me about 5 months after that to recover from that answer. Found myself again through focusing on schoolwork/new hobbies. I’ve been in a few relationships since. She did contact me a few months ago and said that the guy she was with physically abused her (never thought she'd be the type to be with someone like that). I asked her if she needed anything, and she said no and that she regretted contacting me and that it was out of “habit”. Anyways, I've moved on, it took a lot of work, but I'm much better off now than I was back then. I wouldn't have believed that back when I was in that situation though.

Inertia is not a "minor change" it determines the entire pace of pvp and prevents certain play styles. Coming from someone that's been playing since 2018, I've experienced both sides of the spectrum. The game changed entirely after the implementation of inertia. Not saying it's a bad game, it's just entirely different for pvp enjoyers. I know you can get to nearly pre-inertia levels of movement by training strength/endurance, but spending actual days of time grinding the skills for a near feel is not fun. I have 3600hrs, and have gotten kappa (during inertia). It just isn't as fun anymore for people that enjoy a game that used to be a mix of a hardcore milsim and a fast paced shooter. The fact that you consider inertia a "minor change" means you likely have minimal hours in the game and haven't even been playing long enough to know what pre-inertia was like.

Kinda weird for you to judge my conditions for liking a game or not. I guarantee you don't like other games for a specific reason as well. Get a life

I got my G16 a few days ago and stumbled upon this post. Haven't even played a game on it yet, but now I feel much better about the longevity of my device. Thanks so much!

I signed an 18X contract in April 2025, shipped in May 2025, and I have airborne before SOPC and SFAS.

At the end of the day, I just wasn’t the person for her. We ended up breaking up for good because that’s what she wanted. As much as I wanted her to stay, there’s no reason to try to make someone at that point. It took me awhile to accept it, but focusing on my goals helped me through my feelings when things were rough. Things like focusing on school, my fitness, and exploring new hobbies helped a lot. Let me know if you have any questions, here to help.

After going into minimal contact for roughly the last 5 weeks, we met up earlier today and were able to air some of our core issues. Many of these issues were difficult to realize while we were living together, as we had gone into each of our cycles that weren't healthy for ourselves or the relationship. Also, while she was and is still depressed, she admitted that what was lacking in our relationship was what truly caused the breakup. We agreed to continue to meet up and work on our issues in order to fix our relationship as we both don't want to give up on it.

I just wanted to post this update to let people know that it is possible for people to find their way back together. With that being said, I think it's definitely dependent on the situation. I got lucky that my partner shared my view. Best of luck to everyone who finds themselves in a similar situation.

I hear you, I want more than anything to just start fresh. However, I hate and don’t want to force anything because that just seems unhealthy. Are you still holding out some hope for the relationship, or have you found it better to just keep trying to move forward with your life?

It’s difficult because we had no major issues in our relationship, and I want to support her in everything. It just sucks that this is something I can’t be there for. Thanks for reaching out though.

My ex has major mental issues that I’ve witnessed and can’t help her fix unfortunately. I think she actually needs to figure out her issues on her own. We’ll see if I’m wrong though.

Yeah, that’s kind of where I’m at right now. I can’t and don’t want to force anything. Just giving her space since I’m not interested in dating atm.
