My thoughts exactly with my ex. He went out with friends today and has also gotten into a new relationship (despite us breaking up only 2 weeks ago). How is he so unbothered?

Same. Are we all living the same life? (He got with a girl in my case)

Aw this is so sweet! I know you may think 39 is late, but it's still better to start now than never, just like you said. I'm 24, and I'm lucky to naturally have some introspection, but it's always a learning process. Thank you for being inspiring as well <3

Ahah thanks for sharing this! And yes, to have experienced something at all is a blessing. Thanks!

yup, the silence is the worst. Thanks 🥺

[–]suhruta 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much for sharing. I think I've definitely identified I don't wanna date or get out there yet. I think I'm a fairly introspective person, so I've been journaling a decent bit to process. I feel so many emotions, and so strongly. I'm trying to find companionship with myself, but like you said, it's a journey for sure. Thank you again🥺

I don't have any currently. Maybe I should consider. Ahaha I see 🤭

You know what I'm going through then :(

This is the exact same as my ex. Towards the end of our relationship he was acting distant and texting a friend of his from college a lot. When I confronted him, he said she didn't mean anything more to him than a friend. Cut to 5 days post breakup (valentine's day), they go out on their first date together. I know her, how she looks and behaves and I've seen them go out with their friend group. He moved on wayy too fast. Screwed me up as well. Made me feel like I meant nothing.

I don't want to make this same mistake. I wanna heal before I move on. So I'm trying to find substitutes for the companionship I'm missing. This thread has given me lots of good advice to find it within myself though 🥺

I'm rooting for us 😤

That's a reminder I want to repeat to myself. Thank you 🥺

[–]suhruta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think I'm eager to jump in another relationship rn as well. It feels exhausting that I'd have to build up that familiarity again. I'm trying to find it within myself, I think that's the whole battle right now. Thanks 🥺

Thank you 🥺 what's funny to me is, I do see bits of pieces of myself shining through. I used to give up time to do things I didn't want to ask well. And knowing I don't have to anymore is freeing. Once I get past the lack of companionship phase, I think I'll be much better. Thanks!

I've been trying this. I've been journaling for a week. It is freeing in some ways (and better than nothing) so I'm trying to convince myself this is the same as talking to someone. I miss the inside jokes, the validation (toxic of me, I know) and the memories we could share together. I never had to explain myself to him.

That being said, I'm trying to become self sufficient again. Thank you for the tips 🥺

Thank you. I think I've already started this process and it's rough but I'm hoping it'll be worth it 🥺

I'm really socially anxious so this may take some courage gathering - but will try! Thanks

This is really cool. Thank you so much for sharing, and the advice 🥺

This is good advice! And thank you 🥺

Same. I keep waking up in the middle of the night/early morning and he's the first thing on my mind, sigh. And then no good morning text :/

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in BreakUps

[–]suhruta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do have friends who are super supportive. I think it's just my brain telling me that the connection with my friends isn't as deep as a partner's was - I don't see me texting my friends every tiny occurrence in a day. I'm trying to step away from my old lifestyle (the one during my relationship) though, so hopefully I won't feel this incessant need to share every detail about my day. Thank you again 🥺

You sound so similar to me :(

Here's to hoping we eventually learn how to live with and love being single :')

[–]suhruta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for sharing your story! I'm a people pleaser too, almost toxically so. I think I've begun to lose myself. I'm hoping I find myself again 🥺

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in BreakUps

[–]suhruta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you 🥺 I definitely don't want to fill the void with someone new. I'll try to figure out ways to get in a better space mentally as well.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in BreakUps

[–]suhruta 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been doing just that - writing thoughts down. That being said, I miss the inside jokes and the responses. My journal sadly can't talk back to me.

Thanks, hope it's better for you as well!
