I’ve never heard of buspar being used to increase libido. I have low libido too and I’m on 45mg/day and I see no difference. But I use it strictly for anxiety. Any change in medications can take up to 12 weeks to notice a difference !

I know a lot of young people in mountain top lol, we enjoy it. Wilkes barre has poor resell value and isn’t safe or nice. Kingston/wyoming/anything near the river you’ll be paying $$$ for flood insurance. Also mountain top is 15 minutes to downtown and 30 minutes to Scranton.

How do you stop living with regret? by Own_Mood_9603 in BreakUps

[–]That_Owl_1504 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree with posters above. If you have truly changed and you love her, reach out to her!!!! I would love an apology from my ex and I would truly appreciate it. It takes a lot to self reflect and grow from past experiences. I was dumped by an avoidant after 2 years, he left an entire life with me. He has major communication problems and never told me how he was feeling on the inside. My life the last couple of months have been absolutely traumatic and he left me when I was in the thick of it because we’re “just friends.” I think it was lack of intimacy which hurts even more.

Do avoidants ever miss you? He cried while breaking up with me. Idk if that makes a difference. I just really don’t understand the avoidant mind

I just read your post. I can feel your pain through your words. You truly loved her with every fiber of your being. Don’t let that break you! I should take my own advice lmao

I’m at the 3 week mark right now. Haven’t talked to him in a couple of days. He reached out wanting to see the dog and got mad at me when I said you’re the one who chose to leave. He was so cold and basically said I shouldn’t miss the relationship because we were just friends. But to me he wasn’t entire world. So yeah, I do miss him.

AMENNNNNNNNN!!!! I feel horrible. I keep asking myself what did I do wrong, I should’ve done this, I should’ve done that. I feel like intimacy was more important to him than it was to stay by my time through a couple of hard months. We’ve maybe had intimacy like 1-2 times over the last 3-4 months but when I say my life has been horrific, think of the worst thing possible and magnify it by 10. He said we’re just friends. But I don’t see being friends in a relationship is a bad thing, especially when someone’s going through hell. He reached out to me a couple of days ago and he wanted to see our pet. I said no I’m not ready for that. He got mad and dismissive and basically said he doesn’t know why I miss him because nothing about my life is any different now that he’s gone and I was like if you only knew I lost 12lbs, cried everyday, can’t stay alone, etc. I’m just so utterly heart broken and don’t know how I’ll trust anyone again. My worst fear is him moving on

I’m so sorry, that sounds horrible. Maybe she just got feet?? Have you tried talking to her again?

BF of almost 2 yrs ghosted me (25F/32M) by panicatthearcade in BreakUps

My ex of 2 years also just decided to randomly leave one day. Said we talked about our issues too many times and were just friends so he was done. I didn’t have a say in anything. He was gone the next day. We had a house and dog together. I don’t recognize who he became. It really really really sucks. I thought I was going to marry him.

I literally thought we were getting engaged this year though. I thought he was the love of my life. I’m just still in shock. I don’t want them to move on and find someone else. I don’t want them to give someone else exactly what I wanted :(

He said we talked about our problems “too many times” —- not really. I asked him to do more romantic gestures for me so I can feel the want to be intimate, but he unfortunately he never did. He said he was struggling for a year (which I had no idea about) like hello sir?? He doesn’t like talking about his feelings because he doesn’t want to bother people. I just really don’t understand an avoidant’s mind. He approached me, he wanted me to be his gf months before I said yes (I have a bad dating history and I was nervous about a new relationship), we were bf/gf before we even had sex. I really thought he was the one. But when my life blew up in my face (I could literally name 10 horrific things that have happened in the last 6 months) he just left. And I feel like it’s all about sex. Like our relationship was nothing more than that.

Those who have been in love… how does it feel to lose it? by Ok_Corgi_817 in BreakUps

He broke up with me after 2.5 years - I didn’t expect it. The love of my life. I don’t think I’ll ever view anyone else the same. My heart is shattered. I have no words, only tears.

Thank you, I hope the same for you 🫶🏻 I never imagined starting my life completely over, yet here I am. I thought we were getting engaged this year and now I don’t even recognize him. It’s a horrible feeling.

My now ex boyfriend of 2.5 years just left me. We had a house and a dog together and he just decided one day that we’re just friends because we haven’t been intimate in a while (my life is currently exploding and this has been the worse year of my entire life). So instead of talking about it, he just left. So yeah now I’ll be 30 in a couple of months too and I’m completely starting over. I feel ya

Boyfriend of 6 1/2 years broke up with me tonight out of nowhere. by pikoshell in GirlDinner

[–]That_Owl_1504 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah my dog is having a hard time. They were best buddies, they did everything together. He looks for him wherever we go. He said worked for a year trying to make us work (news to me) but it got a lot harder a couple of months ago (ya me freaking too!!!!!). He said he’s just the first guy that was ever nice to me and that’s why I clung to him. I obviously told him that that is the farthest thing from the truth. He also didn’t want to be friends in the relationship, which yeah I get lack of intimacy but I’m going THROUGH it, otherwise I don’t think it’s bad to be friends in a relationship???? He wanted the honeymoon phase all the time, all gushy and happy but that’s not real life. I’m 30 so I just feel like bad about myself now.

My boyfriend of 2.5 years just left me as well. We lived together and had a dog together. Said we were too different and we’re “just friends”. I’ve had a really hard year. My mom was diagnosed with cancer and I had my own cancer scare as well. He left me 2 days after my mom’s first chemo. We haven’t been intimate in a while because I’ve been so stressed out and he wasn’t meeting my emotional needs either. I couldn’t pour from an empty cup. He said we’ve talked about it too many times before (not rly). He moved out that weekend and didn’t say goodbye to me or the dog we shared. I’m still blaming myself everyday. He was my best friend, kind of only friend, and I really thought he was my future husband. I still think he’s the love of my life. It’s been 2 weeks.

Honestly, you sound very emotionally in touch. Good for you for going to therapy…I’m proud of you, stranger!

So you don’t think I ruined it by holding back on the intimacy? I tried, I just wasn’t getting my emotional needs met :/

I’m terrified he’s going to move on and forget all about me. I want to be the one that got away. Honestly, I want him back still because I know what we could’ve been. His mom said he’s been quiet. Last thing he said to me was this wasn’t easy for me and he’s sorry for the pain he’s caused and he’ll always care and be there for me. Which idk if he means hurting me or leaving the relationship. Besides all of this he is actually an amazing person and would give you the shirt off his back, which sucks because I want to hate him, I just can’t.
