I broke up with him even though I do love him and he loves me. I had to! How can I move on from someone I can't find a reason to hate?

It is a tough process. We become invested in the relationship and we become a part of each others lives. Unknowingly we share so much and that and experience things together. When the person is no longer there its like a piece of you is missing. So that is normal and okay. Especially if you know that the relationship was unhealthy for you. There are tough times ahead. But it will pass and you'll be able to invest yourself into another relationship and try again. Remember the reasons behind why you are choosing to not be together and know that the pain will end.

I found that the best way to let go of my past was to look toward my future. To look, not with fear or anxiety, but with clarity and insight. I focus on what I want to accomplish and find the healthiest path that will lead me there. Letting go of the past is not forgetting. We can’t learn from the mistakes of yesterday if we forget. Let the past go, embrace the present, and all of its imperfections because that is how we can achieve moving forward. We live it, learn from it, snd then let go of it. Only keeping with us what we need for our journey to a better tomorrow. That is a path worth taking.

here is a reason that you have broken up, hate is a strong emotion and letting someone go is not a reason to hate them. it sounds as if you are setting both of you free for a reason that doesn't seem clear now, but perhaps will do later. You move forward by becoming fully you, by taking a step back and assessing who you are without the other person. Where are you going? What/who do you want to be? It's time to work on yourself now. Deep breath in and out - it's time to focus on you.

Moving on is definitely a difficult thing to do, especially from someone you still feel you love. But moving on isn't about hating someone, it's about improving yourself. You have to choose to do what makes you happy, and what will be better for you in the long term. Focus on yourself and maybe find a new hobby or interesting show or book. Over time, it will get easier and easier and you will realize that the choice you made was right for you. Love isn't the only thing needed to keep a relationship going. Keep working on you!

I hear you and can relate when you said, "I had to!"
Recently, I broke up with my long-time best friend due to an inevitable reason. It was me who proposed the idea of breaking up, and we both parted ways amicably. There were no hard feelings or hatred, but I had to end it. Sometimes, we have to take certain decisions in life that we wouldn't have taken if circumstances were different, and I feel that it is completely okay. Just because we parted ways with someone doesn't mean we have to hate that person or forcibly find a reason to hate them to move ahead in life. As the broke up took place at a point where you both were in love, hating each other may not be possible for any of you. You can be in love with someone and still stay away from them. Moving on may feel like walking on burning coal now, but it will get better as time passes. Reminding yourself that every human being goes through pain might motivate you to look ahead in life. It is okay if you're struggling with it now as moving on after a breakup isn't an overnight process. Take some time off from work, studies and indulge in self-care activities. We tend to overthink and forget ourselves after a heartbreak. Therefore, shifting your focus from "What went wrong?" to "How can I better care for myself?" will help you keep yourself sane.
Wishing you the best! â¤

Do not hate the person accept the reason you broke up with the person. Take some me time to heal yourself before trying to move on to anyone or anything else. This is a grieving process as you are losing someone and some of yourself. Give yourself time and as time goes you will be able to move on naturally and be ready for whatever comes your way. Do not be hard on yourself and do not force anything.
One last thing remember you are a very special person and worth loving when the time is right you will know it.

Through my own experiences, I've found that it can be very difficult and sometimes harder to move on from someone when there are no reasons to point to. I felt this way when my girlfriend was going back to college. It was sometimes frustrating to think that circumstances were out of my control and that it was best for me to break up with someone I still love. What helped me move on was knowing that it is okay for me to break up with someone who I don't hate or have something against. I learned that sometimes I will have to make decisions that go against what signals my emotions are telling me. Although it was difficult to move on at first, I recognize that breaking up was the best decision to make for me.

I have honestly done the same thing. Try thinking about how in the long run this will help you rather than hurt you. You may love him but sometimes love isn't enough. To move on, you should think about the happy times and then compare them to the bad ones. Think about why you had to break up with him. In the end, this will be good for you and you will be able to be a better person because you made such a hard decision. Just remember that you are amazing and can get through anything. Be confident in yourself!! ðŸ˜

You don't have to hate someone or even fall out of love with someone to breakup. Sometimes its more about about can we the best versions of ourselfs with one another. Subconsciously you broke up with him for a reason. Trust that feeling, You dont have to wait for the "explosion" to happen before you leave. Sometimes loving people is knowing when to let go so you both grow. And doing so before the "explosion" happens leave preserves that relationship for the future. Weather it be as a reunited couple, or to connect as friends later on down the line.

I can completely understand the frustration of having to leave someone when you wish you could be with them. But there are times when we have to move on, and that is okay. Moving on requires a couple of steps, but mentally, it is very gradual. The first step is removing any proof or things that remind you of him. This means deleting pictures (and deleting the pictures from your recently deleted), deleting chats, and deleting messages. You need to take all things that remind you of this person out of your life. Another part is catching your thoughts about this person and immediately turning them off. You don't need to think about why something happened the way it did because the relationship is over anyway. It may be easier to get your mind off of this person by doing fun activities. The number one thing you do not want to be doing is doing nothing, thinking about this person, and going through pictures and memories that remind you of the relationship, so avoid them! Try to have hobbies and have fun. It seems simple, yet if you don't do it, it's can be a rough breakup recovery.
