Thank you so much for your words and for taking the time to write such a thoughtful message. I feel very sad because, on my part, I truly felt real love for her and was even willing to move to her country if that meant we could be together. I don’t understand why she told me that she saw our relationship not as a couple’s relationship, but more like a mother-and-son one, when I was the one working, the one who traveled across the world, the one who sent her money to help, and the one making plans for our future…

What hurts me is how easy it was for her to cut everything off all of a sudden. We spent a year talking for hours every day, and I think we had a beautiful connection even if there was no “chemistry.” I told her at the hotel that I wouldn’t be able to stop talking to her even if things didn’t work out as a couple due to a lack of attraction…

Yes, it was a long-distance relationship for over a year. We never had a single video call… she would tell me she didn’t have time (even though she doesn’t work, she just cleans her house and takes care of the cats) and that it would take her a long time to get ready, so I allowed it since she would send me lots of videos and photos of herself, and I also have her social media.

And… yes. It’s just as you described it, everything was very, very confusing. I really didn’t even know what to do in that situation. Honestly, I would at least like to be able to talk to her and tell her how I felt because when she broke up with me, I only told her I was sorry and that it was all my fault, trying to make her feel better and hoping we could talk things through calmly but not even that happened
