Had an extremely emotional goodbye once on the way to an airport - cried the whole flight home. Now every time I'm on a plane I think of it. Likely won't go away till I fall in love again

By what if there wasn't a bad, what if other person just had a lot going on, ended it too early and too embarrassed to say they screwed up, so you both shafted yourselves. People don't think about this possibility enough.

It sounds like you want to reach back out to your person... Do it. If she doesn't reciprocate then you know and can move on.

I wish I wasn't such an introvert would have definitely messaged her

You were completely compatible but the relationship didn't last?

OP- If you think you both still have a chance, you should text her. Don't let your introversion stop you..

OP, because it's been over a year since we broke up. And I'm over her (I think) and don't want to stir things up again.

Time fixes most things. But the soft corner never goes away. Good luck OP, you'll be fine. I still miss my Roomie / best friend / bro during school. Had an intense, debilitating and infuriating obsession with him. It's been several years now but I still think of him several times during the day.

I hope he’s in as much pain as I am. The way he ended it was so cold and selfish and unlike how he was any other time with me. It was like a personality switch. I’ve never been so wrong about someone. I’m not sure how to process or recover from that part of it.

One of ex’s friends who is I met twice, has been in touch, him and his wife, like commenting on some of my posts occasionally (we are just fb friends and IG friends). I never saw them since. Then the friend texts asking if I am seeing someone and that he wants to set me up with someone. He felt awkward doing that, I thanked him for thinking of me, but then he said we all told your ex he is an idiot for letting you go and they asked my ex it they could still be touch with me and he said yes.

For those that are home grown (at least 2 levels) into the PPMD level, how has your relationship with juniors that you’ve been close to from the start evolved?

I felt like a walking zombie during thanksgiving, barely eating and barely talking. My family is small and I told them ahead of time my relationship ended. I focused on my niece and nephews, cried when I wanted to and slept from 8pm-noon for the last 5 days. Showered once or twice. That’s the best I could do and that’s OK right now. I’m back in my apartment, just trying to take it one day at a time, and not re read his texts too much. My birthday is Thursday 🙄
