Just broke up with him, so upset

Hi all

Don't really have anything to ask, just wanted to get this out.

I've just broken up with the my BF of 1 year. I just felt something wasn't right. I guess I just didn't trust him. That's it. That's the reason why. I broke up with him because of a gut feeling. No argument. No (to my knowledge) betrayal. Just because I had a feeling.

However, I'm just so so so upset. I haven't been able to stop crying all day. I think what I'm most upset about is, maybe this feeling that I loved him so much, but I felt like he didn't love me as much? Maybe that's what hurts the most?

We broke up over text, which I'm fine about. I'm a cryer, so I could never have done it in person. We text back and forth for a bit. But what stung was, once I sent my "final" goodbye message, he never replied Sad we were keeping the texting conversation polite and mature, so I wasn't expecting him to not say goodbye Sad

I don't really know why I'm posting this, I'm just so upset and have no one to talk to. I think I need to post this instead of texting him!! I'm not ready to block him. It's too final. I'm not ready. But then I'm running the risk of being weak and texting/calling him.

How am I going to get through this!Sad

Something must have set your senses off. He must have done or said something that has caused you to do this?

You can't have been happy with him for you to do it and IME your gut is usually spot on

I think you are a strong person because you went with your gut feeling instead of something actually happening.
You recognized that you were not happy and put yourself first- that's a good thing.
Its early days, so just give it time. Keep very busy so that you are distracted from contacting him.

Always go with your gut. I wish I had on many occasions.

You dumped him. It is your right to do so, but you can't dump someone then be upset they didn't respond to your 'final goodbye'.

You will heal in time 💐

Something obviously set your senses off. Maybe you shouldve had a conversation first though and see if anything changed or you felt any better

I think being upset he didnt send a final goodbye is a bit unreasonable though if you initiated the break up. Maybe you guys couldve stayed friends?

If you're sure this is what you want to do though then thats fine. You will heal in time. I know the first day is the worst..hugs x
