I really feel so deeply sad. Going through this breakup is making me feel so hopeless and alone. I keep hoping he’ll come back and realize he made a mistake but I know he probably doesn’t care. I don’t want to do this anymore.

Went through this myself a couple months ago, and it still hurts every day. We spoke briefly once since then, but that was all. I wonder how she's doing, but I'm sure she's doing just fine. Have to focus on and learn to love myself now.

Don't choose to love someone who doesn't want to love you back. It hurts, but keep going ❤️

My heart goes out to you. I was broken up with 2 months ago by someone I loved so very, very much and I understand your feelings of deep, intense grief and hopelessness. I’m sure you’ve gotten a lot of well meaning advice like “focus on your hobbies!” “Spend time with friends!” and it all sounds so pointless right now. What I’ve been doing is focusing on just the next right decision and not looking too far ahead so I don’t get overwhelmed. I just wanted you to know I see you and I understand. The only way out in through, keep going ❤️

Reply? Forget it, I'm all set.

Yep, 10 mins is too long. Here I was expecting "Wow! That's fantastic!" How silly of me.

Now I just have so many regrets that I let her go. I know we still love each other and left on “good” terms but can’t forgive myself for my lack of action.

Her knowledge of the program certainly built trust with me early on, but it has been two years. I discussed it with my current therapist but she’s still in there. Any advice?
