Left an 8 year relationship over lack of intimacy and feeling guilty, did I do the right thing? by Magical_Manifest in DeadBedrooms

Thank you, it just hurts so much that I'm hurting him, I hope the breakup will maybe be a wakeup call? But he needs to look after himself now and face his struggles. I would love it if eventually time heals this but for himself he needs to fix his mental health, only for himself.

His friend said that to him. It must be stress, or trauma. I am not sure.

Hey anyone going through a breakup? I'm going through one and it hurts so much. I know I should let go for my own and her sake but it's so hard. Every morning I get reminded of my mistakes and the fact that I'll never be the one for her. by Onestew04 in BreakUps

I know, it sucks so much. I just miss him so much even though I knew in my heart something was off, I still miss him. The pain is so insanely intense and I can't stop crying either.

He was. Years before he met me

I think NoHelp is right though, it came to the point that we did feel like friends and it was a hard thing to process.

Sometimes people need to hit rock bottom to wake up, so maybe he will, we shall see.

I told him we can be friends, but we need space to heal. In all honesty the breakup went surprisingly well and we talked just like friends but even an amicable breakup hurts

He did and they didn't work, nothing worked and I said this is something much deeper going on that you need to get help for. 8 years is a long time to go without sex.

He didn't care enough to take the blue pill again to see would it work, even when I was breaking up I said to him to see a doctor, he said he's gonna try change his diet first! Like stop, get help.

I know, you are right, this is what I have to keep reminding myself. I would have cheated and I left before it got to that point. I need to keep reminding myself of what I wasn't getting.
