We stayed friends. I should have left if I had the littlest of respect for my heart but I stayed. Because I wanted to be with him, even if we were just friends. Friends in love. Then he left. Why does it hurt so much… we only knew each other for a little over two months. You can talk to good people around you. Just see do you want this life where you are not happy or positive. Trust me this a process and you are going to get over him.
There are over 8 billion people in this whole world and someone out there is waiting to love you. Still if you want to talk you can talk to me. There is no pain that lts forever, what you feel is part of this process of growing, two months is minimum comparing with the amount of many months of happiness you will experience with someone that truly loves you no matter what.
Keep up and be kind with yourself, that pain will go over for sure! He treats me like absolute gold and I love him for being him and for everything he does. Towards the end our sex stopped happening and it got more and more rough until I said we needed to end things.
Shortly after that I slept with someone and it made me feel terrible that I did so, so quickly. I was not interested in another relationship. But one thing led to another and I caught feelings and once telling him he told me he felt exactly the same.
Although for some reason I still wanted a connection with my ex, he was always in the back of my mind. I wanted to be friends with him. Things got messy I tried having that friendship but the other guy I was talking to could not handle it. Our feelings had grown to strong and jealousy began forming. We were getting jealous about things one another would do and we were fighting.
I did stop talking to my ex for him for about a week because I noticed it was hurting him that I did so and seeing him so down was hurting me. That week he was so happy but I was not, I wanted to make a friendship work with my ex, I missed him in my life.
One day something snapped in me and I realized I need to start doing things for me to make myself happy instead of always trying to be the people pleaser. So I hung out with my ex and once I told this other guy things blew up and he told me I had to choose between them. But I also think I may still be in love with my ex.
My ex and I talked, I told him I had been sleeping with this other guy shortly after we ended. But, still has strong feelings for me and wants to get back together. He is muslim, I am catholic, we kinda had a secret relationship but not. He has always said due to his religion he would need to get married the Right way, the Islamic way, this is when he spoke to an imam a leader of a mosque and Muslim community who approves marriage.
I understood this was very important to him and I felt happy about it. I thought he was the one, but we want different things, I planned so much with this man. Oh my gosh. That was hurtful to read. I am an ex-Muslim. Read about Islam and apostasy.
Maybe you should get him to leave Islam so you can just be a couple like everyone else. Islam forces people to get married. I pray for your wellbeing. Hello, I have this same situation and it fcking suckss so much.
I understand each and every word that you wrote. How long does it hurt for? Its because you allowed your pain to be alive. Our brain keeps reminding us because of the comfort that person provided — everything is replaceable if we wish too.
My girlfriend and I broke up officially a little more than a month ago now. That was hard. I lost some of my passion for the relationship. She was the same beautiful person I remembered but something was just off. I wanted to give her an answer but should have taken more time to process. This ended is us taking a break. As time moved forward we both realized it was time to go back home. We were planned a road trip across the country that my girlfriend wanted to do.
I was planning it for her cause I knew how badly she wanted to do it and I had been looking forward to it also. Had my share of concerns and worries about it but I was able to set that aside because I wanted this trip to help of relationship.
So one thing led to another, I was in SoCal with my family and she was up North. I was still being a little distant over the phone cause I was dealing with some family stuff.
A few months later I found myself back in the same city as her so we reconnected. And let me tell you, I fell in love with her all over again and I wanted her back.
She told me she was afraid of getting hurt again so she became a little hesitant with me about how to proceed forward. Which I understood. We were kinda playing games with each other for a few weeks.
Feeling like we were dating again but really not confused me. Hi there… I read your thoughts on break ups and this really helped me. I appreciate the information. We were high school sweethearts but the relationship was always on and off. When I went away to college we maintained the relationship but he would always lie to me. He even traveled to see me 12 hours away from our hometown and still hid text messages from me, etc.
When I returned back home for summer vacation I took a class at my local community College. A girl I thought they were just friends with sat next to me. She told me one time he got drunk and confessed his feelings for her a few months back. I was so confused because we were together during that time. Anyways, this was the first time I felt betrayed by him. I eventually forgave him and we got back together shortly after that incident even though I never let it go.
When I graduated from college he even went to my ceremony. I studied abroad in England for 4 months, he flew out to visit me. We traveled to Italy and Amsterdam for Xmas. You get the picture. We have so many memories together. Despite being extremely toxic, I have love for him so much. I was so comfortable around him. When I came back from Europe last year, I moved in with him at his parents house. My ex wanted to help me with commuting to work so he co-signed a car for me. Yes, we financed a car together.
This was a bad idea…. Anyways, being stuck in a room together we would always argue. He never made effort to go out on dates or do anything. Now I will say for the past 6 years the relationship was never perfect. In fact, we do have a history of domestic abuse. Last September was the final straw. We got in an altercation and the cops were involved. I moved out of his house and from there it officially ended. I took the car and we both still did payments on it.
We would still keep in contact with eachother but only for hookups. We would get hotels or have sex in the car at night. Never go out in the day or talk and get closure. My ex used me for sex and I accepted going back to him because it was my way of feeling loved and close to him, in the moment.
A month ago on New years, I woke up and my car was gone. He traded it in for a new one. Was going to drop off my stuff in bags on my porch the next morning. Also, he met another girl and they both like eachother. Keep in mind, me and my ex hooked up 2 weeks before. On this day he took my car, I confronted him and he met me at a gas station. He told me he never loved me and it was just a bad attachment.
He never loved me for 6 years. Is that even possible? He looked away. He dropped me off my house and told me to move on and find someone better because he did.
Its been a month and im still grieving. How can someone move on so quick when you were just talking to them weeks prior?? Its only been 5 months after we broke up and I miss him like crazy. I keep going back to him because he did message me for sex again.
I was with my girl for 8 years. November of she decided to leave me because of things we been through in the past. I love her deeply and sincerely and worked so hard to change my ways in order to be with her.
I went against friends and family for her. I gave her all of me every piece inch by inch. Despite the things we put each other through I never expected her to just give up on me.
I feel like I was stripped of my life. I even have suicidal thoughts. I believe there is better for me but I only want her. My heart is literally in pain and I can feel that pain everyday and I have been feeling it for 3 months now. Not so much. Turns out, emotional pain can negatively affect physical health. And while the Covid pandemic has brought many couples closer together, it has also caused great strain, and sparked a relationship breakdown.
Studies show that women lose an average of 5lbs within the first month post break-up. This number falls to 3lbs if they instigated the break-up. It is no secret that our emotional wellbeing can directly impact our nutritional intake. Put simply, your body literally enters the fight or flight mode and regards food as a secondary concern, favouring instead to poise for attack. Evidence of this is the pupils dilating and your muscles becoming tense.
The parts of the brain that take charge of emotional and physically pain sit closely together with the parts that dictate how we eat our food and its taste. As a result, this can lead us to believe that we no longer like the taste of even our favourite foods. It holds anti-anxiety properties as it promotes feelings of love, wellbeing, and security. When we experience heartbreak, it has the opposite effect and makes us feel insecure and unable to eat.
The hormone also strengthens our emotional memory, hence why we replay emotionally distressing events in our head. Eggs, nuts, salmon, and cheese are foods that boost serotonin levels.
Serotonin is a feel-good hormone that can aid in comforting the body. When you experience heartbreak, it is vital that you fuel the body with nutritious foods that will promote your wellbeing Getty Images. However, according to Briggs, it is fact. Kross E, et al. Social rejection shares somatosensory representations with physical pain. DOI: It might even be possible to die of a broken heart. People who are in the early stages of grief are more likely to experience increased blood pressure and heart rate, which can raise their cardiovascular risk.
Buckley T, et al. Haemodynamic changes during early bereavement: potential contribution to increased cardiovascular risk. A study found that widows and widowers were 41 percent more likely to die within the first 6 months after losing their spouse. The researchers suspect this was a result of a 53 percent increased risk of cardiovascular disease.
Fagundes C, et al. Spousal bereavement is associated with more pronounced ex vivo cytokine production and lower heart rate variability: Mechanisms underlying cardiovascular risk? As more scientists confirm the biological basis of love, there may eventually be a treatment for heartbreak. In the meantime, psychotherapist Athena Staik shares three important tips to make it feel a little better.
