It's been almost two months for me and no signs of him coming back. The heartbreak isn't getting any easier and he's still in my head 24/7. All I do is hope he misses me and comes back

bombaygin · 30/03/2019 20:42

I'm so lonely. I know he's no good but I love him. I can't cope with this feeling anymore

YoureAMeanOneMrGrinch · 30/03/2019 20:43

I am unfortunately on the cusp of this. My partner of seven years (married for less than one) needs some space and doesn't know if he loves me anymore and doesn't know if he's depressed.
We have a 1 year old, too. All very sad.

PorpentinaScamander · 30/03/2019 21:23

More gentle hugs to you all.

I keep getting hit by a wave of grief. I'll suddenly remember something he said/we did/ wanted to do/ whatever and it hits me that it will never happen now/again.

Sad

I've realised men are much more complex than us. They just don't talk through things. I thought everything was so good between us...we had a lovely romantic weekend away in January , he said he was desperate for us to move in together, I was the most beautiful and kindest woman ever etc etc, then shortly after he just said it's over as he didn't think " it's what he wanted" any more. My heart is truly broken and I really feel.like I'll never get over him. Everything reminds me of him/us.

It has been three days since I moved out of what was our rental home. He ended it with me almost four months ago but has decided to stay until the lease has run out. In the end, I moved out because I couldn't handle living in a limbo anymore - it hurt too much. I am now in my new place and all I am doing is functioning on an auto pilot. I don't know how I will get through this. My heart actually hurts. I feel physical pain all day long.

PorpentinaScamander · 31/03/2019 10:21

Happy Mothers day to you all. I hope you manage to enjoy the day in some way

How is everybody getting on?

I haven't cried for a good few days now. Don't know if that's just the tablets working though.

I get the keys to my new place on Sunday. I expect to cry on my first night there. It really will well and truly be over.

He has broken my heart and I don't how I'll ever recover.

I really do hope he is feeling happier.

Strongteaplease · 03/04/2019 07:22

I'm kind of numb. I haven't cried for about s week either but it's probably due to the 50mg of seryraline each day that my doctor prescribed! My heart is also totally shattered and doubt it will ever mend. He's still on my mind constantly but I'm trying to see friends a few times a week which helps. I did isolate myself but a few coffees and chats with the few good friends I have really helps break the monotony of heartache.

NoNameBasis · 03/04/2019 11:39

Same here. I have cried here and there but nowhere near as much as I have done for the past six months. I know though that this is the tablets working - my doctor has put me on anti depressants. The hardest thing has been to accept that the person I once knew is not there anymore and that, at present, I care about him a lot more than he does about me. Accepting that is something that will take me a very long time.

bombaygin · 03/04/2019 15:50

I've done nothing but cry for days. I've also messaged him but today he has shown his true colours and just how toxic he really is with how he responded.

As much as it hurts the tears have suddenly stopped.
I'm shocked at him but sadly not surprised.

I hope I can move on now.

PorpentinaScamander · 03/04/2019 15:56

I've upped my anti depressants because they weren't really working. I keep crying at nothing. Not the loud body shaking sobbing I was doing. Just the silent 'why are my eyes leaking' sort.

I cant stop thinking about the what ifs and everytime I see a thread on here about a new relationship I panic it could be him. I'm constantly over thinking it all. He hasn't deleted me on Facebook. That must be s good thing.

I need to stop torturing myself.

Strongteaplease · 03/04/2019 20:44

I think.of him all the time but I don't think he must be thinking of me as he knows how distraught I will be feeling yet hasn't reached out at all to me. I keep reading that the best thing to do is not try and contact him to give him space to miss me. I'm so worried though that the space is giving him time to meet someone else and forget me

PorpentinaScamander · 03/04/2019 21:23

Strongteaplease I'm the same. I don't want him to think I don't care. But I don't want to keep messaging him and piss him off Sad

Itstimetoquit · 03/04/2019 22:23

my relationship has ended tonight after he told me he was only with me as we have a child together(weve been together 10 years) so I came to bed out Of The way to think really,,,and 10 minutes later he came and got in bed, my head is a mess

PorpentinaScamander · 04/04/2019 10:32

Itstimetoquit

Sorry you are joining us. What a headfuck. Why end it and then get into bed with you. Ugh. Men.

Itstimetoquit · 04/04/2019 11:00

I don't know very strange...hes staying in the spare room for now on,,I've just been in touch with council who are going To Help re-house me and the children,today he seems very angry and agitated,i feel nothing I've just had breakfast done the housework I don't feel upset at all!! What's wrong with me

PorpentinaScamander · 04/04/2019 12:00

Could be the shock. When my DCs dad ended our relationship (by text) I replied "thank you for 9 happy years and 2 wonderful children" Hmm
Then it hit me a bit later!

dilly123 · 04/04/2019 17:31

Hi everyone,

Sorry to those still struggling.

5 weeks on & it's not getting any easier here either.. my friends think I'm fine.. saw his best friends wife today she didn't mention him nor did I.. everyone says move on you deserve better.. I want to scream.. I can't, I just want him!! Despite the hurt he's caused me over the years.. I've always loved him, still do & always will.. nobody understands, they will just think I'm weak & be cross with me.. hell im cross with me but he's my everything!!

Itstimetoquit · 04/04/2019 17:44

Sorry ur still feeling down,this is the second time for me first time after 18 years and now after 10 years it does get easier it just takes a long time x

Strongteaplease · 04/04/2019 18:40

dilly 123
I feel exactly like you. My friends are saying I can do so much better and trying to get me to go on dating sites, wild nights out so I can meet someone else but I just don't want to. I want him and nobody else ....EVER. They don't understand at all and thinks I should have moved on by now. I'm trying positive thinking now as I keep reading that you attract what your mindset is, so I'm trying to stay upbeat and visualise us being reunited soon. When you're desperate you try anything!

dilly123 · 04/04/2019 19:10

@Strongteaplease

I'm so glad I have this thread as nobody else understands.. a group of my friends keep saying only way to get over one man is to get under another but the thought of that makes my skin crawl.. I keep telling people I wouldn't take him back & this time I'm done because I know that's what I should be saying & that's what they want me to say but I'd literally give up everything I own for him to love me the way I love him! I'm not religious but I even keep praying 🙈

OP posts:
Strongteaplease · 04/04/2019 19:27

I'm not religious either but I'm.praying every night also! Before I go to bed I sit outside in my garden with a cup.of tea and a sneaky cigarette( for stress relief!) and I look up at the stars and the moon and will him to come back. When I can't sleep, I like to think he can't sleep either and we are both thinking of each other. I really hope we can post in a few weeks that they have come back to us and how happy we are.

PorpentinaScamander · 05/04/2019 21:44

I like that people have been finding comfort in prayer.

I'm hurting so much today
Fridays are definitely the worst days. I just want him back. Sad
