Getting over an ex while still loving him
Relationship Stress / by scarletTiger073

...See more What advice or action should I do while I’m trying to move on? I still love and want my ex, but I am trying to accept that things didn’t work out and he didn’t see any value in staying. I keep relapsing to grieving over the relationship and wanting him bad. I want to hope, but I also don’t want to get hurt.
Possibility to Change?

...See more For the dumpers, if they want to get back together with their ex, so they realize they have to make changes to make the new relationship work, or do they stay the same?

...See more I am realizing that my ex is not the right person for me. I am doing things for me and trying to get through the days. School will be a good distraction for me. However, my birthday is coming up and we’ve never missed each other’s birthdays before. A part of me is still hoping he reaches out, but I know it’s too soon for him to realize his mistakes/change his behaviors. I just want these feelings to go away. I don’t want to keep wanting him, yet I do, despite knowing that I cannot take him back as he is.
Deleted Pictures

...See more When I was with my ex at the time, I found out that he deleted pictures of us from 2 years ago to the recent photos. I confronted him about it. He went quiet and couldn’t give me a straight answer for a moment. Then, he explained that he didn’t like how he looked in our photos (compared to the tons of photos he has with his friends and co-workers). I asked why did it matter about our photos vs. the ones he had with his friends. He said he didn’t care about those, just our photos. Then, I asked him why he deleted single pictures of me. He replied that he didn’t feel worthy to be with me. At the time, I took his word for it, but I’ve been skeptical about it. What your thoughts/opinions on this? Crappy or genuine answer?
Is there hope or not?

...See more I was in a 13 and a half-year relationship that was on and off. We’re in our 3rd breakup and I feel that this could be it, but I don’t want it to be. I hurt my partner emotionally and I’ve apologized for the stupid mistake, but he didn’t want to forgive. He’s still angry and hurt. I know I should move on, but I can’t seem to. I still have hope that we‘ll be back together, but it can’t be where we revert back to our old ways. I’ve seen us make changes and work out well until different circumstances come into play (i.e. school and work) that affect our daily lives and that we can’t focus on our needs for each other. However, maybe it’s really time to let go? We did try to grow and change a lot, but at our core… we may not be compatible… is it time to let go or should I wait out for that small hope?
