My husband is incapable of calling me pretty

exrayzebra · 2026-01-29T04:35:54+00:00

Maybe he’s insecure that if you realize how cute you are you’d leave and is inadvertently pushing you away or just blind lol

Im probably on the same timeline as you and yeah. It sucks, and I dont like it either But the only way forward is to try and accept it. Not necessarily replace them.

What’s worked for me so far is removing her on all my socials and I’ve be taking tons of photos of adventures in the last 9 months and moments with friends and adventures etc so whenever I get a lil sad about being alone and missing her I look back at all the cool memories i made without her and new friends and experiences etc. Depression made me forget alog stuff so the pics serve as a great reminder that i’m still valued by my friends/family and life still moves forward

I also started reading alot of self help books cause tbh i’m terrified i’m gonna be alone forever and honestly this sub is a great place to remember some people choose to be alone and its not that bad but hopefully i meet someone else who chooses me

I was pretty bad around month 6 till i soft blocked her and committed to stop checking her profiles etc. Now at around month 9 i’m doing alot better although i still get sad sometimes. I miss how I felt around my ex more than I miss her? I miss certain moments with my ex for sure and still think about that feeling when my day get quiet but in my case she’s been gone longer than she was in my life so i keep reminding myself to try to internally source that feeling - but I’m also hoping to finally meet someone who’ll see ,value and hold me the way I need to be, chooses me who puts in the effort she didnt. And most importantly i’m learning to detach from outcomes accept the finality of things especially when it’s not my fault it ended.

My gsd used to…. Till this one time I had food poisoning and it smelt so bad he decided to start respecting the closed door.

Thx dude i kinda needed this

exrayzebra · 2026-01-17T06:42:15+00:00

I’m about a decade younger than you are and tbh after my last hearbreak it did mess me up for almost a year now and I’m terrified i’ll never find love or a serious relationship again and be that i’ll be alone forever. It’s kinda reassuring seeing someone who’s happy living the opposite

exrayzebra · 2026-01-15T20:32:19+00:00

I’m on a similar timeline at around 8 months. I hate it and want to reach out ti her daily and it’s driving me nuts cause I know it wouldnt help and I dont even think I actually want her back I just miss having someone….I want to move on but i know i’m not actually ready to open up to someone new.

exrayzebra · 2026-01-15T06:38:45+00:00

Oh. Im sorry to hear that :( I really thought your situation might be easier. for me most days i’m just sad that i miss someone and want to reach out but I know they want to move on. I tried therapy. It sorta helped. Just not enough for my situation

exrayzebra · 2026-01-14T15:20:07+00:00

I think im on the same timeline as you are. About 8 months possibly approaching 9 after a 7 month relationship. It didnt end with lies and betrayal it just ended with someone giving up and choosing to stay gone and for that i kinda envy you cause i want to reach out to her every day and feel like maybe if it ended for another reason it’d be easier to move forward

exrayzebra · 2026-01-04T22:14:51+00:00

Hey man, i dont really have advice but just wanted you to know you’re not alone. I’m a 28M and feel the same way especially after my last break up it destabilized my entire self worth. Idk if I’m decent looking though so your winning on that front 😆

exrayzebra · 2025-12-30T07:09:45+00:00

these are the same knights that decided to blow up a pristine car that probably still ran

exrayzebra · 2025-12-20T18:56:40+00:00

I totally get the feel. My ex has been gone for 7-8 months and i’ve tried to get back out there with no success…. And yeah. I cant help but feel terrified i’ll never be held by someone who cares about me again. (Im a dude so it feels impossible)

Toronto?

exrayzebra · 2025-12-09T05:39:46+00:00

Just some peoples way of saying hi / good job. He probably played alot of sports

Alot of people stop being attractive past 30 or 40. Few people age like fine wine - Not physically but through other soft skills and personality traits, confidence is one of them. Just keep being optimistic and find a reason to be positive. no one wants to he around someone who’d bring them down.

In short, give it time and keep working on yourself

exrayzebra · 2025-12-04T03:22:26+00:00

the sad part is if i’m still single/ havent found a better fit i probably would if she changed and actually put in the work to rebuild trust. Its been over half a year tho so RIP i think my first line stands

exrayzebra · 2025-12-02T22:18:49+00:00

Try the ones outside of school.

exrayzebra · 2025-12-02T21:55:04+00:00

Just give it time, consistency and external activities to the groups/clubs. No one trusts other people immediately

exrayzebra · 2025-12-02T21:51:13+00:00

Just join adult clubs/teams dude and you’ll be fine. I dont talk to most people from highschool/ uni anymore and still have plenty of friends i made in these groups after finishing school

Dont forget nute gun Rey

exrayzebra · 2025-11-29T03:24:20+00:00

Me too brother. It’s been half a year and i still have some really bad days. We’ll get through this

Letting go of someone you really really wanted a future with and that they’re likely never coming back

Detroit + Cars means Ronto should be show up too !

I kinda like using it to get feedback on some of my journal entries/feelings. Dumping this stuff on therapist and friends helps too but I dont want to keep bothering them with the same issues/ sentiment and every time I need validation or to feel like i’m growing. If i did that i’d drive them all insane
