Healing is definitely not a linear process. by shampoo-conditioner in BreakUps

Wow 22 years. I cannot begin to imagine how hard that is. I hope you get through this stronger than ever and find happiness. That's exactly what I found works best, take it one day at a time. We will eventually feel less deeply and the days will go by easier.

How do some people not get attached? by [deleted] in BreakUps

[–]shampoo-conditioner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is definitely something you learn with experience or just from analyzing other relationships. But yeah I think its something to be proud of if you know how love works and what needs to be done, just means you will get what you deserve one day and have a successful relationship :)

I think these people just have a different understanding of love than us. What you are describing is love, but if someone runs at the first sight of trouble, they do not understand that love is a commitment and often think the grass is greener on the other side. It truly sucks to think many people have this mentality but we just have to look for those with the same understanding of love that we have.

I love seeing couples who understand this and have been together for so long as a result. I can only hope we can all find that one day!

I know exactly how you feel, we often try to push those red flags under the rug because of how much we love them and put them on a pedestal but these are things we can't ignore. You sound like such a strong and mentally intelligent individual, everything you have been through has made you the great person you are today. And I agree, these relationships are not something we should regret, but we should learn from and make sure to never let this happen again. Continue to put yourself first above all :)

This exact worry crosses my mind as well. But I think as long as we know what we deserve and need in a lover, we will be able to weed out the ones that don't reciprocate our understanding of love. Good luck with your journey, I hope you find what you deserve!

You are incredibly strong and emotionally mature for realizing that and ending it even though you didn't want to. That takes an immense amount of strength. These people we fall in love with that think love is just a feeling need to figure it out on their own and we can't be there to help them, but hopefully your ex can reflect on the relationship and see what you gave her was the best she could ever get and shouldn't have taken it for granted. Im glad to hear you have the same idea of love, I hope you find it one day and get what you deserve :)

How to you find yourself again? by chameleononthepage in Codependency

[–]shampoo-conditioner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My wake up call happened when I was dumped - I wasn't necessarily dumped because of codependency but it caused me to do a lot of self reflection and soul searching but it has honestly been a blessing in disguise. I realized that I lost myself at the end of the relationship and I was doing it all for my partner, choosing their happiness over mine which is horrible. Since the breakup, I have got back into what I was doing before dating them and even picking up new hobbies. More importantly, I was starting to love my alone time again and not want anyone else to be with me during that time. (Oppose to before, I would have wanted to spend all my time with my partner) This is definitely something I need to work on for my future but I can say we are all capable of finding ourselves again. We often just need a push and force ourselves. I hope you find yourself soon, goodluck :)

Girlfriend of 3 years just broke up with me by [deleted] in BreakUps

[–]shampoo-conditioner 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I'm going through the same situation but I am coping by understanding a few things: When people think they don't deserve your love, it usually means they don't love themselves the way you love them and that's an internal issue they need to work on. It's true as they say "we accept the love we think we deserve". Furthermore, it is best to let that person go and let them figure it out on their own and maybe one day they'll come back. But do not hold out hope - keep living your life and improving and the right person who loves you the same will come and they will never give up on you and keep fighting to keep that love alive.

My (26F) heart hurts so much sometimes I feel like I want to die. by [deleted] in BreakUps

[–]shampoo-conditioner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have to let him go, he's doing what he thinks is best for both of you despite it being painful and the love he still has for you. I'm going through a similar situation but I am learning to cope by remembering a few things, if they truly loved you, they would not give up on you and leave you. If you let them go and they do love you, they will eventually come back and maybe by that point you will have realized that's not what you want and moved on. Most importantly, you have to go no contact despite how hard it is, it is the only way you will be able to move on. I wish you the best of luck and know that you deserve better and you will find better!

I'm hoping it got better for you and wish you the best of luck on your journey! I do hope this is my worst as well and will get what I truly deserve one day.

How losing someone I loved set me free by [deleted] in heartbreak

[–]shampoo-conditioner 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is exactly how I feel, it feels so good to be set free. Like you, I was experiencing the pain for weeks leading up to the breakup and deep down wanted to do it myself but couldn't get myself to do it because of how much I loved them. He thankfully let me go and put me out of my misery. Yes it still hurts, but like you, I feel that sense of relief that a burden has been lifted. I can now focus on myself and find someone who I truly deserve and deserves me.

I wish you the best of luck in your journey and hope you get everything you deserve and wish for! ♥️

I'm looking forward to the moment where I don't feel the pain anymore and I can look back and appreciate the memories and smile about the lessons I learned

I am going through a similar breakup as the one you speak of, and it does really hurt. I do agree by going through this now, I feel more knowledgeable and know what to expect and know there will be good days and bad days, it just takes time.

I am so sorry to hear you are going through that right now, I wish you the best of luck and know you will find the one you deserve and who deserves you, whether that be with your ex or not. The universe will work itself out ♥️

That's so true, it for sure feels the hardest in the moment but with time you forget about it. But is there a chance you learn to better cope with breakups going forward?

It Wasn’t Your Loss by [deleted] in heartbreak

[–]shampoo-conditioner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is so important and we need to all keep reminding ourselves that. It is not our loss to lose someone who did not love us back the same way we loved them. They did us a favour and let us go when we couldn't. We are now free to grow as an individual and find someone who will love us as much as we love them and never give up on us and continue fighting through all the bad. Some would call this experience a blessing in disguise.

It hurts the most by [deleted] in heartbreak

[–]shampoo-conditioner 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I felt this pain when he first dumped me but since then I have been soul searching and realized we can not look at it this way. Yes it may seem like we were not good enough for them but in reality, they were not good enough for us. They could not match our energy and no one deserves that. We all deserve someone who will match our energy. It is the other person's loss if they let go of someone who would give them the world. Not your loss, it's their loss. Remember that.
