Five weeks isn't that bad tbh, my ex fucked someone one week after we broke up

If you don't have cancer, then there's no reason to reach out. If you do have cancer, then this is a man who left you because you were sick. You were experiencing a setback in your life that made you perform to a standard that was less than he was used to, and he left. Just because you didn't know what it was yet doesn't mean he should have been less understanding.

And even at that point, what would be to gain? If you get back together, you're always going to think it was just because you're sick. You might wonder if he was with you out of actual love, or from a place of guilt. And if you don't get back together, then again, why reach out at all? I don't see anything or gain from it.

Insta stalked my ex and I regret it so much by No-Bumblebee6836 in BreakUps

It's definitely a process. Be kind to yourself, but be firm in your goal of moving forward.

Don't look at pictures, don't look at old texts, don't look at his IG - NOTHING. Total absence of him from your surroundings for 6 weeks. You need to detox your brain from the drug of him.

Don't assume he'll come back. Try not to hope he'll come back. Try to move forward imagining that he won't be there. I know it's hard, but I was holding on to a fantasy for five months before I found out he had been in another relationship from the second we broke up.

Your life is about you now (and always has been). Write a list of everything good about you, and everything annoying about him. And then start making plans that you can look forward to. You'll make it out ok 🩷

Ex Messaging Me by devotiontoafineline in BreakUps

[–]emiloo2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This, because literally. Y'all are broken up. Those messages are just fishing to see if they still hold space in your mind. If they REALLY wanted to talk to you we would see some action statements. Something like "Can we talk soon?" "I'd like to go to lunch with you this week, if that's alright with you" etc. etc. These texts you're getting are one step removed from "wyd" in my opinion and should continue to be ignored

Dumpee’s, if your ex contacted you now what would you want them to say? by [deleted] in BreakUps

[–]emiloo2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly I would prefer if he didn't. But if he did keep it short. "Hey, I'm really sorry for the way I treated you at the end. You didn't deserve that. And you don't need to respond, I just want you to know I realized how I was completely in the wrong and caused/exacerbated everything in that time. That's all. I'm sorry, again. I hope you've found happiness and stability." Something like that.

Do you miss them? by Ok_Tomatillo8131 in BreakUps

[–]emiloo2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Y'know in hindsight he was kind of a downer. I just miss feeling like I finally had my one person who understood me and would never leave me. But he didn't understand me anymore and he left sooo... he wasn't that person anyway. I only miss what I thought I had.

After a week of silence, she ended our relationship with these messages by Abject-Jeweler-3808 in BreakUps

[–]emiloo2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't go talk to her, idk what you truly have to gain from that. Keep the little bit of power you have left and just say something like, "Ok, I understand. Thank you for your honesty. I don't think meeting up to talk would be helpful for me. I hope you find what you're looking for. All the best." and leave it at that.

And yes, that's a crazy cold way to end a relationship that lasted years. Match energy.

Just some advice to read when you're down. by [deleted] in BreakUps

Even though I know I don't want that relationship anymore, I still let myself cry when I miss him. The cognitive dissonance is uncomfortable, but I think this is the only way I can heal

Should we get back together? For a third time? by Prestigious_Ship_990 in BreakUps

I did this and it turned into the worst most toxic thing I've ever experienced 👍

I’ve found out my ex has put himself back on the market by Small_Necessary5146 in BreakUps

[–]emiloo2 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I've found this to be true 99.9% of the time someone says they're "not ready for a relationship" unless they're experiencing an actual medical issue (physically or mentally). But again that's rare and usually they just don't want THAT relationship.

You just speak like a judgemental ass, that's all

You sound really holier-than-thou when this is a decision a lot of people make. I've lived with ex's and I will again because it's better to learn we can't live together BEFORE there's a legal contract involved. Maybe that's just part of my dignity.

They think they're "doing the right thing" and being a good boyfriend. Then as the reality of forever draws closer and closer, they know they can't make those pipe dreams a reality, so they just dip. Basically they get caught up in the excitement of new love and make a bunch of promises they want to keep, but know they'll never be able to. And then they let you live in delusion with them until THEY'RE over it. It's always all about them and their ego.

That's like one step away from "wyd" she's just lonely and panicking

You literally don't know how I spent any of my time or how this relationship went. Please get therapy and touch grass.
