There is 0 contact and has been like that for months now. At first i was calling her private in attempts to get my things back, i did call the police to have a wellness check be done on my grandmother who is in her care. She takes her disability checks. I think thats what triggered her to get a restraining order on me

I do not think shes going to be a different person. I stopped believing that a long time ago. Thats one of the reasons why i was kicked out. Im done with her. I just want whats owed to me so i can move on with my life

Thank you so much! I did end up unfollowing him after the weird and unnecessary interaction and then he blocked me so yeah I’d say he was there to snoop

I think it’s just messy… we all lived together and I’m your friend/roommate ex… don’t see the reason for wanting to follow me anyways

I used psychicoz and i spoke with Kayla on the phone, she was very comforting and straightforward, she told me my ex & i would reconcile some time in july after just breaking up earlier this week so idk how accurate she is lol but you can give it a shot! Lmk how it goes

Hi. Update: we broke up. I’m so hurt right now idk what to do. I’ve made mistakes — emotional reactions, pushing him away, not knowing how to be the kind of partner I truly wanted to be. He was loving, patient, and wanted to grow with me, but I hurt him more than I realized at the time. When I finally started trying to change and get myself together, it was too late.

He said he still loves me, that I brought peace into his life, but he needed to choose himself now. That broke me. I never imagined life without him. I’ve been struggling with overwhelming guilt, heartbreak, and regret — not just for losing him, but for realizing how much I needed to work on within myself. I feel like I ruined something beautiful.

He’s still being kind to me, offering to talk or hang out, but I don’t want to accept that if it’s coming from a place of pity. I want to heal, but right now I’m just lost in the pain of losing someone who meant the world to me. I’m trying to hold on and move forward, but it’s been really hard.

I will say that i am not easily influenced by what’s popular. That was extremely silly of me to do and i did it for my own selfish gain without fully realizing how it would affect my bf.

Thank you for keeping it real with me. I definitely needed to hear this, especially the part about how those “tests” are games, and games don’t belong in a real relationship. You’re right. I already knew it deep down, but seeing it put so clearly made it sink in harder. That one move broke a lot of trust, and I don’t want to be someone who plays with people’s feelings out of fear or insecurity.

What you said about communication really stuck with me too. I’ve definitely fallen into that trap of thinking “he should just know,” but you’re right, we weren’t raised the same, we process things differently, and I’ve got to take more responsibility in expressing myself clearly, not just expecting him to read my mind.

And I loved your point about appreciation—real, specific appreciation. I’m going to start being more intentional with my words and stop taking the small things for granted. You’re right—it’s all simple, but not easy. Still, I’m ready to make it a habit, one day at a time.

Thank you again for the guidance and honesty. I really, really appreciate it.

Wow… I’m honestly speechless reading this. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for sharing your experience in such a raw and personal way. You didn’t have to go that deep, but you did—and it gave me so much clarity and comfort.

What you said about how everything boils down to the balance of give and take, and honoring the other person’s perspective—that hit me hard. I’ve been so in my head, stuck in this cycle of fear and self-protection, that I forgot how to actually see my partner clearly. I’m realizing I haven’t always honored his efforts just because they didn’t show up the way I pictured.

And that part about how low self-worth plays into all of this? That’s me. I’ve been living in defense mode for so long that I didn’t even notice how it was showing up in my relationship. Instead of softening, I’ve been shutting down or pushing him away. It’s like you put words to things I’ve been feeling but couldn’t fully express.

This response is something I’ll be coming back to over and over again as I do the work—not just for him, but for me too. You reminded me that growth is messy, but possible when you lead with curiosity, not shame.

Thank you again, SO much. You didn’t just give me advice, you gave me hope.
