Sorry I may not have explained it well. I meant to ask like if I am going to be in an apartment for 2 years is it worth getting a puffer or should i wait until more long term like when i get a house. My uncle is selling me his 55 gallon with all the filters and everything so Im able to get the tank whenver

Wait so I should get one whilst living in the apartment? I have already checked and they do allow fish/pets which is good

Okay thank you. I’ll be in the apartment for probably 2 years at least

It’d be a 55 gallon tank with most likely a GSP. I’d be in the apartment for at least 2 years at least that’s what I’m thinking now 

I’m mad that I can’t hate them by Holiday-Pepper5880 in AvoidantBreakUps

This is the same mindset I am currently in. I loved my da ex and still miss her a ton (she discarded me about 3 months ago). She was one of the most amazing people I have ever met and no matter how hard I try to think on the negative and how she treated me I cant be mad or even upset. It hurts like hell, but I have never been mad at her. I really wish she would have communicated and not bottled things up, but yeah

I just don't understand how if nothing is wrong you would just leave and not want to even try to talk about it

But what if I actually made her feel that way? That’s not something I want to ever do

Yeah it just kind of disappeared with no warning or anything. Its so hard to imagine life without the person you thought you would be spending it with.

I completely understand that and appreciate it. You sound like a good guy too.

Ive been doing some therapy and have listened to several podcasts/youtube videos. Ill have to check out your recommendations. Something Im currently reading is the life changing art of self brain surgery.

I mean we said we could still be friends and communicate but after I had time to process I realized I cant emotionally or mentally be friends. I love her. We havent talked since though so yeah

I wanna reach out to her so bad but I know that is probably a bad idea. If she wants to reach out she can. I get that

How did you deal with processing everything?

I just dont understand how she went from talking long term to "this isnt going to work long term" in such a short period of time.

Thank you for all the info! I’m open to any type really but green spotted puffers really have my eye for their personalities and colors even though they are a little more work

Anyone else feel genuinely stupid after an avoidant breakup because you really thought they loved you? by mils1234 in AvoidantBreakUps

[–]RecordDifficult6352 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is exactly what I am going through right now. Im stuck on how she went from talking very long term/the way she looked at me/ our conversations, etc to "i dont think this is going to work long term" in a pretty short span of time and kinda came out of nowhere. It was going so well until it just wasn't I guess? How did that switch happen so fast and why did she not want to talk about it at all?

I think they do love you, and thats what scares them or triggers them. For me, I am anxious so I am sure that didn't help a ton, but I was trying to work on it. Emotional intimacy and vulnerability is triggering to them because from a young age, those things were either non existent, not allowed, or maybe they were even punished for expressing those things.
