Long term ex gf dumped me 4 months ago and I thought I was healed, but it suddenly hit me again today. This was my first relationship and through self reflection, I’ve realized there were mistakes on both sides. I feel like it would work out between us if we tried again, but she never reached out again and I still miss her I guess…

Statistically, it takes about a quarter to a third of the time you were together to recover.

You probably got a ways to go. Take a road trip, see some National Parks and/or stars with zero light pollution, center yourself, and, remember, there’s no shame in crying.

I’ve been in no contact, blocked her from all social media because I was really hurt. But she can always text me…

If you were a woman we would be telling you to move on instead of go after her. Double standards much

Sorry you’re feeling this way, OP. From your replies, it sounds like she’s not someone who holds herself accountable in relationships since you said she never apologized for anything. You definitely deserve someone who tries to get it right for you and does so most of the time. Write a letter to her sharing all the things you want to say to her, and then burn the letter.

Don’t do it. You just miss the companionship.

Ohh I was confused. Makes more sense now. It’s only been 4 months for me. I don’t see her ever coming back because she’s so stubborn 😞

Are you meeting and dating other women?

Time to start meeting in person. Via the apps. And going out with friends and meeting other people IRL.

You’re living in the past. And the present is passing you by

Reach out to her. Apologize for your side of wrong. Meet her and talk!!!! Take it from there

I’ll be your accountability buddy. I just broke off a relationship. Unfortunately at this point he was my only support system/close friend.

Can we create a culture that recognizes that consuming alcohol results in your body producing acetaldehyde which is a known carcinogen? Not saying that people should not be drinking, but there should be more education about it. Just like how every smoker is aware of what it does to your health. People generally know that drinking heavily isn’t good for you, but most people I come across don’t realize that your body produces carcinogen while processing alcohol.
