This hurts so much, he was perfect in every way and I’d fallen in love with him.
so many plans made for the next few months I was looking forward to and now it’s over just like that.. the pain is physical and I’m in shock. We got on so well and I miss him so much.
ill never find someone as perfect as him.

I definitely am coming off the dopamine fix of his affections.. and looking back I can see I was always craving that next hit like an addiction. Thank you.

Absolutely this. And a healthy relationship doesn't feel like this. Lovebombing.

@Robinkitty sorry this happened to you I’ll never understand this behaviour from men. When you say quite old roughly how old are you? If you don’t mind me asking

'No hard feelings.'

What an insulting and shallow future faker he is.

Don't waste your tears on him.

In the kindest possible way, you will learn a lot from this 💐

In time op you will realise he was anything BUT perfect and a lovebombing donkey. I have been there and not too long ago either. I lamented him for MONTHS and it finally hit me what a maniipulative swine he was. Trust me you can do better.

@Lighteningstrikes agree ‘no hard feelings’ is awful and sounds very manipulative like it was some kind of game he was playing. Horrible. Men like this have no empathy whatsoever

I’m 40. He ended his last messages with all the best for the future and no hard feelings like he was signing off a work e-mail there was no emotion in his ending messages.
He also dumped me by text and first thing in the morning before I had to leave for work and then joined back up to the dating website that day.
I was in such shock that morning I completely forgot that I was ‘harassed’ by a man on my way to work who followed me down the street shouting abuse and tried to grab my phone off me, I’ve actually not even mentioned that to anyone in real life because I think I was in such a state of shock at the dumping.

@Robinkitty

he sounds completely dysfunctional sorry….
also really sorry about what happened to you on the way to work. Are you able to report it to the police?

If he did come back to me I would snap him up straight away.. I actually messaged him last night (shame on me) he didn’t even read my message.. that’s so cold is t it? I mean 5 months together and he can’t even read my message..
I don’t know how I’m going to make it through the day..

Have a bit of self respect, he dumped you by text and went straight on a dating app! Why would you take him back? He is obviously not perfect and the fact he doesn’t want to be with you means he’s not perfect for you. I read that you’re 40….. that’s still young I’m not sure why you feel this is your last chance. You’re posts scream of desperation don’t cling to the idea of him move on either alone or find someone else

@Robinkitty how are you doing op. I thought I was doing well getting over my ex who completely ghosted me until yesterday when I was told something by a mutual friend and the realisation has hit me that I will probably never see him again for the rest of my life. It's hit hard and hurt so much. why does it hurt so much when I know he's not right for me? This time last year this guy was making me so happy now I'm bloody miserable. I'm slightly older than you op and just shows there's no age limit on heartbreak. hope you are OK feel free to pm me if you wish.
