Trying to get past Break Up

practicalPlum3423 October 22nd, 2023

Hey everyone!


It's been three months since the break up. It came COMPLETELY out of the blue. His own family was shocked, his mother was so confused. We were happy together and then one day when we would usually have date night he wanted to talk, said something was bothering him. He couldn't explain what was going on, saying that I had been a great girlfriend and he loved my family, that he didn't want me to see the bad parts of him and that I deserved someone better than him. We hadn't even had a fight, and had been together for 9 months. He had even bought a ring supposedly.


To this day, I'm very confused how it got to that point. Friends familiar with the situation think he got cold feet about a future together. I have not heard from him since that day.


I've been spending this time working on me. Unfortunately a week after he ended things I suffered a debilitating injury and am only now getting back to normal. He was a really good guy, and I still miss him every day and pray for him everyday. This coming Friday would have been our one year anniversary. I'm worried it's going to be a hard day.

Woah! That is tough. Heartbreak is real. But regardless of what happened, don’t blame yourself. Some guys are just simply not ready and there is nothing you could have done to make him be ready. Be thankful he said he don’t want you to see the bad parts of him because he probably would have hurt you worse eventually. Trust me, it was something behind that statement. You are going to find someone who will never let you go! Keep focusing on you and keep pushing. It will get better and you will get over it!!

Yes I am sure that is extremely challenging to deal with my thoughts maybe he's an addict and he was in relapse but can't know for sure of course wish you all the best hope you find happiness.

@practicalPlum3423 it's okay to have hard days, and to have feelings about this. You will get through this difficult period. 💜
