Hi i am going through a break up of a 10 year relationship...i broke up two weeks ago..i know it hurts... Be strong.
What i do is i don't raise expectations.. because if you have hope it hurts you everyday.. he says me how much he loves me and he always will...he is going through some kind of depression and he broke up with me out of the blue... The was no issue in the relationship..no fighting, no cheating nothing.. he is just not happy with they way he feels about his life and he reset everything.. there is a high chance of him coming back but i should not be holding to that ... The same you have to do too...
Don't expect much.. focus on yourself and try the no contact rule.. don't text him don't put pressure on him...with you no contact him you will let him know that he did a mistake and re-evaluate the situation..
If you have the need to text him just come here and chat .. that's why i am on that app.. to help each other grow out of things..
Everything is happening for a reason...i know it doesn't help much ..but it's true
Take care
