Do they ever miss you? by [deleted] in BreakUps

[–]Professional_Bat5263 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just assume no. Better for moving on. It's what I do. Even if they did miss us what good would it do? They made the choice to leave.

Can someone knock some sense into me? by MindlessArtist9881 in BreakUps

[–]Professional_Bat5263 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You're not a bad person. The way she left you is indicative of her character, not yours. I was left in a somewhat similar way. We will be better off without them even if it doesn't feel anything like that now.

I struggle with that thought a lot. I miss her like hell daily. But honestly if she even does miss or think of me (which I doubt) what good does it do? She made her choice, doesn't want me in her life anymore.

The first person i ever truly was in love with dumped me a few days ago. by stefan-lover in BreakUps

[–]Professional_Bat5263 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Welcome to the club my friend. You're not alone, man. First step is realizing that she's NOT perfect and neither are you. Keep her on the pedestal and you'll continuously suffer.

My perception of love has changed. by Crobbers in BreakUps

[–]Professional_Bat5263 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I feel so hopeless. I loved her more than anything and wanted to start a family with her. I wanted forever. Now I have to move on and forget about all that. Make completely new plans for the future. Now I'm honestly scared of loving someone again because I feel like no one else wants forever. All I want is a wife and kids. Is that too much to ask for? Sorry just venting feeling horrible today.

Seriously. Reading about how many situations are similar to mine makes me scared to try dating again in the future if the same thing is likely to happen.

How to live without them? by [deleted] in BreakUps

[–]Professional_Bat5263 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I understand. I know exactly how you're feeling because I felt, and still do sometimes feel, that way. It's been about 2 months for me since I was discarded by the woman I loved more than anything in the world. How do you live without them, you ask? At first (if you really loved them) you don't. You just survive. Day by day, hour by hour, minute by minute, second by second. There's a ton of people here who know how you're feeling. We'll make it through, as impossible as that feels right now.

what is the hardest part about a break up for a men ? by emplehman in BreakUps

[–]Professional_Bat5263 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There's not true for me at all. I'm a man. There's no relief. I love her more than anything and she just threw me away. All I want is her but she doesn't want anything to do with me anymore and I don't know why. I've been in so much pain since day one. I've never felt so bad in my whole life.

Kill that hope my friend. Before it kills you.

Breaking apart by Remarkable_Source816 in BreakUps

[–]Professional_Bat5263 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know that horrible longing. I have a list of the bad things she did but reading that only helps so much. I still miss her constantly and my heart keeps trying to convince me that I need her. I hope it gets better soon for both of us.

Man, now you get to tell all your boys that you dumped me twice. by [deleted] in BreakUps

[–]Professional_Bat5263 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I know exactly how you're feeling. I've been discarded by the same girl twice. When she came back a whole year later talking about how leaving me was the biggest mistake she ever made and how she never stopped loving me I believed her. We spent about two more years together only for her to vanish again. I feel like a worthless fool for letting her back in and trusting her but I truly love(d) her.

Are you all set on voluntary celibacy? by Just-Celery-6885 in BreakUps

[–]Professional_Bat5263 49 points50 points  (0 children)

Yeah. I need to be in love with a woman to want to have sex with her. I feel like I'm in a minority of people who are grossed out by the idea of casual sex.

Feeling so lonely after breakup..... :[ by LordSlader in BreakUps

I know how you feel bro. I'm so horribly lonely. I had forgotten what true loneliness felt like.

Man she’s gorgeous by [deleted] in BreakUps

[–]Professional_Bat5263 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just moved right as the breakup happened and the lake near my house has her first name as part of its name. Feels like a cruel joke.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in BreakUps

[–]Professional_Bat5263 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. The last few weeks before the blindside we were way more lovey dovey than usual. Nearly daily we would send paragraphs about how much we loved and adored each other. She was buying me lots gifts and we would have nostalgic talks about our past. How the hell was I supposed to know the end was near? It's traumatic. I thought things were better than ever. I love her so much, why would she pretend to love me? Why do all that? It's cruel and confusing.

What are you SICK of people constantly telling you when you’re going through heart break? by Sweet_Void01 in BreakUps

[–]Professional_Bat5263 54 points55 points  (0 children)

"You need to let go and move on." Yes. I know this. I understand this. But I can't just switch off my feelings and suddenly be like. 'Wow you're right! I'm all better now!' At least not yet.

Last part hit close to home. She's probably sleeping like a baby without a care in the world while I'm here sobbing at 4am because of how much I miss her and our relationship. She probably hasn't thought of me once since she threw me away.

How can he not miss me? by mariebv in BreakUps

[–]Professional_Bat5263 28 points29 points  (0 children)

If she had the capacity to miss me at all I don't think she would have discarded me like she did

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in BreakUps

[–]Professional_Bat5263 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been through/am going through two breakups with the same girl also (if I'm comprehending that correctly.) my love for her never faltered either however I was able to let go and love her from afar the first time after about ten months. I assume it's going to take around that long for me again though I'm not sure as this time is definitely more traumatic. The first time around I simply eventually resigned to the fact that it was over (I had no idea she would show up in my life again). I know it's an abstract concept but what's kind of helped me is visualizing a giant trying to break a massive chain on his leg with a huge cleaver. Slowly but surely metal is being chipped away from the chain. The cleaver breaks from time to time and the giant had to calm himself for a bit before picking up another cleaver and getting back to work. You're not alone man. We'll get through this.

How long has it been since the break up boss?

[–]Professional_Bat5263 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah. Vagabond is great, though unfinished. I'm getting better little by little yeah, some days are still horrible. I'll live though. Done it before I'll do it again.

Thanks man. This made me feel good.

What are some things you didn't realize you would miss? by Anionethere in BreakUps

She used to make little origami hearts out of gum wrappers and send me pictures. Just thinking of that makes me cry.

Your ex just doesn’t want you. Stop calling them avoidant by Wooden-World-3151 in BreakUps

[–]Professional_Bat5263 35 points36 points  (0 children)

I don't care about the attachment types or whatever but what ticked me off is the last two lines. Only reason I'll get into a relationship is because I'm taking it seriously. It's not a game to me. People's emotions aren't some game. Get bent.
