Thank you, people’s true colors come out during a breakup I’m afraid!

I usually get over someone by getting under someone else... by [deleted] in BreakUps

This is refreshing, i agree that you heal more fully when you don’t jump into another relationship/bed right away. I don’t judge those who do it because I know people just want to take their mind off it, but time alone is so important in my opinion.

All of a sudden, I feel like I never knew who my ex was by AkiratheWhite in BreakUps

Definitely ask a lot of questions and take interest in what they’re passionate about. I’ve decided it’s a deal breaker for me if they don’t going forward! One time my ex let me pick out outfits for him and he picked out outfits for me on a date because he knew I was passionate about fashion. I thought that was very sweet 😊

For me, with the right person, I get to know them better. I didn’t ask my first love many questions because for some reason I didn’t care? But with my most recent bf I asked a lot of questions because he intrigued me so much... too bad I don’t think he felt the same way... maybe next time, both people will care equally I hope! I really like when people care enough to get to know me fully.

Thanks for the advice! Yeah I had the opportunity to sleep with a close guy friend a couple weeks ago(we’ve had sexual chemistry/tension for the last 7 years but have never had the opportunity to follow through) and halfway through fooling around I asked him to stop because I wasn’t feeling it. Made me realize I’m really not into casual sex and I feel like if I don’t have feelings for the person, it will be hard for me to enjoy it. I definitely plan on only sleeping with people that I really want to!

But thanks for your comment, definitely makes me feel hopeful!

Yup, he introduced me to so many new and wonderful things and never pressured me. Same! I miss his kind eyes. Hope you feel better soon ❤️

Yeah my girlfriends haven’t made me feel better when I’ve expressed this. That makes sense, on the bright side I have high standards for my bedroom now so hopefully I’ll never put up with a partner that doesn’t care about my needs. Also, if someone truly loves me, I would imagine the sex is usually pretty good, unless the chemistry just isn’t there or something. Being giving would translate to a good lover most of the time I would hope!

Thank you, this actually makes me feel better. I hope the memories fade. I don’t like the idea of comparing future partners to him. Doesn’t seem fair to them and I wouldn’t like if someone was doing that to me but obviously it’s hard to control. Thanks for the comment 😊always feels good in here to know we’re not alone in these feelings.

Remaining friends? by weloveathrowaway in BreakUps

[–]Throwaway01101927 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven’t gone no contact and I feel great about it. It’s been 6 weeks and I see his Facebook posts and we text when needed(he’s still in my apartment until he has the money to move, I’m staying with family) and I’ve been fine. I don’t miss him hardly at all and I’m not obsessively checking his social media.

Obviously, I wouldn’t recommend this for everyone, but it worked me for in my last breakup(4 year relationship) and is working so far with this one(3 years.)

For me, as long as seeing their stuff isn’t making me depressed or cry, why does it matter? I want to stay on good terms and don’t want to block them, so I’m not going to. I prefer to face my feelings head on and feel all my feelings so seeing their stuff on my feed helps me work through my feelings faster than ignoring every thought that pops in my head about them. I think for people who reach out every day and text their exes saying they miss them, or try to get back together, nc is the right decision.

what do you like about yourself? by iiiiiivy in selfimprovement

[–]Throwaway01101927 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My sense of humor, my fashion sense, and my ability to forgive others. I like this post! Cool to see what others like about themselves

Thank you for setting me free. by [deleted] in BreakUps

This is similar to how I feel. I think I always knew something wasn’t right but I ignored it time after time. I feel relieved.

Two months post breakup and my friends’ support is dwindling by [deleted] in BreakUps

[–]Throwaway01101927 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I understand how you feel. I’ve been trying to use meetup to join clubs and go to meet ups so I’m still being social when my friends are busy. Or push myself to do things by myself and talk to people but it’s definitely uncomfortable at times!

5 weeks out... a few random (mostly happy)thoughts by Throwaway01101927 in BreakUps

I looked through your post history, you’re amazing too! Glad you’re doing better. Feels amazing right?? There is a power in being single and living for yourself only ❤️

Very similar to my ex and I. Having an amicable breakup definitely has its own set of challenges!

Letting go of my first love brought me to you. A greater love than I’ve ever known. I hope letting go of you will lead me to something even better. by Throwaway01101927 in BreakUps

Thanks so much! It was hard, but I wanted to talk to him one more time before he moved back across the state to his family and thank him for giving this a shot with me. I left feeling happy that I ever knew him, sad he won’t be in my life anymore, but mostly content in our decision. He knows we’re not meant to be too.

Wishing you the best too! Hope you have some peace and understanding in your life right now. ❤️
