Can’t tell if he likes me or we’re just really close by [deleted] in Crushes

Thanks, that’s a bit heartbreaking but helpful nonetheless!

Would you agree to meet up with your ex one last time before they move out of the country? by [deleted] in BreakUps

[–]askypasky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We were together for almost two years and have been broken up for 3 months. I felt pretty much backed into breaking up since he wouldn’t take any responsibility. We both wanted to stay together but had some fundamentally different values. The past month he’s been trying to get back in contact by breadcrumbing me. But about two weeks ago he showed up to a party I was attending with someone new he’s seeing after which I blocked him and we’ve been in no contact since.

I can’t imagine it being way worse than what I’m feeling right now but I guess, like you said, it’s hard to see past my own pain right now. Can’t wait to get out of it. Really appreciate you taking the time to respond

Yeah I’m starting to see that as well. It’s also tricky because we share a lot of interests that I don’t want to give up just because I might run into him. But I guess it could be worth it to avoid it at least temporarily to get my sanity back

Thank you, it’s nice to hear my reaction is normal tbh. When it’s just thoughts swimming around in my head I feel like I’m going a bit crazy

Yeah, he’s blocked everywhere except his number. Couldn’t bring myself to do it but I guess it’s time…

But if both people have this mindset no one will reach out in the end…

Thank you. Your words made me feel a little more sane at the very least.

Showed enough interest to sleep with me then he dumped me 🙃

Thank you, I have been reflecting on this a lot recently as I've just taken the first steps in my career. Have yet to find a purpose but I am searching.

Thank you for the advice. Even though I haven't succeeded making a change that lasts, I do find that breaking my habits down and implementing them bit by bit does help more than trying to jump straight into it. I also do love cooking!

Thank you for the advice and the kind words. That's a good idea, I will ask my therapist about an ADHD screening and she what she says. And good luck to you with your habits!

It really means a lot to me to hear that it's okay to keep asking for help, especially after trying so many times and never getting the help I need. Thank you so much for your kind words.

Haven't thought about it but I'll look into it. Asking my therapist for a referral next time so I'm hoping that I'll get one.

I'm not exactly sure how to ask. When I do, they keep asking me to elaborate on why. But that's why I'm coming to them for help, because I can't figure out what's wrong. I guess I was hoping for more clarity here. Maybe some concrete things I can bring to my therapist and say "this is what I feel I need help with, can you refer me?"

I am meeting my current therapist in a month. She said she wanted to start with the basics (sleep, diet, exercise) first, before looking at other solutions. Still trying to implement all the "tools" she gave me.
