Broke Up With Girlfriend Of 4 Years The Other Day, Feeling A Bit Lost

Discussion in 'Sex, Love & Relationships' started by solidguitar77, Jul 8, 2014.

  1. Hey y'all,  I'm not one to really talk about how I'm feeling or anything. I usually keep it bottled up pretty tight. I have to vent a bit here, though.  As the title says, my girlfriend of 4 years and I broke it off last week.  The split was mutual, and on good terms.  This was my second serious relationship, but I wasn't too bothered when the other one ended.  This is my first time really experiencing heartbreak, and it fucking sucks.  I can't eat, my sleeping patterns have been fucked beyond all recognition, and every single thing I do or see is bringing back all these tantalizing memories.   It constantly feels like a bomb is going off in my chest.  It almost physically hurts.  Now matter how busy I keep myself, I can't stop thinking about it.  It feels like it's never going to go away.
     
    To make matters worse, we live together. We have almost since the beginning, as my family took her in pretty early on due to some issues she was having at home (I was 17, she was 16.) She's not in my house right now, but is living in a spare room that's attached to it.  Still, running into her is inevitable. She has mostly been staying at friends' places since we broke up, but it's still fucking torture knowing that she could be twenty feet away from me at any given time when I'm home, and I'm supposed to be moving on with my life.  Her leaving isn't an option, she has no one she can stay with for any extended period of time right now, and she won't have the money for her own place for at least another month or two.
     
    Fuck me. :(

     
  2. tough situation, why did you guys break up? you say it was mutual but it seems like you don't want to.
     
  3. You sound pretty heartbroken, man. You sure it was completely mutual?
     
    It really sucks when you'll inevitably keep seeing them and there's nothing you can do about it. I had a similar experience except I worked with her rather than lived with her. Try not to be home as much as you can, I guess. 
     
    Don't bottle it up or shut yourself in; talk to people about it. It can even help talking to her about it, as painful as that sounds. Do anything you can (within reason) to take your mind off of it. You just gotta give it time, sadly.
     
  4. Look at nesw (north east south west), She has lucious lips and a nice clevage. Why don't you forget about your old gf and make a pass at nesw?
     
      Haha I'm kidding. Don't ever take any advice i may give on relationships. I fail at them.

    Yeah, it was completely mutual.  It just wasn't working out.  We still have feelings for each other but our long term goals don't line up, ya know? I don't want to get back together with her, I'm better off now.  It just sucks after you've been with someone for so long and they're suddenly not there anymore.
     
  6. Well since communication seems unavoidable there's a good chance you will get back together or have another fling.  But the bad part is this will delay the healing process quite a bit.
     
    The only advice I can give you is eventually it all just gets better. One day you wake up and you don't have that sinking feeling in your stomach anymore. You'll be aight, roll one up you got a lot of time left on this ride.
     
  7. Was talking with a few mutual friends and something seemed a bit fishy.  Did some detective work, and it turns out she had actually been fucking around on me with someone who I thought was a friend.  I sent her a text, just calmly asking her about it, and her reply, word for word, was "What the fuck ever.  My life is none of your concern now."  So I told her to come get her shit this weekend and get the fuck out.  I now give absolutely zero fucks.  Good riddance, bitch.
     
    Can't believe how heartless people can be.  We went through some really hardcore shit together for such young kids, more than a lot of people twice our ages likely have.  I supported her through some unbelievably dire times, and this is how she repays me after four years. Cunt.
     
    Welp, that sealed up that wound pretty fucking fast.  On to the next one! 
     
  8. Dang that's pretty harsh of her. Why do girls have to do that crap? Maybe she's hurting and it's not true? I dunno, man. Sad situation

    I wasn't convinced at first either, because I didn't want to believe it.  Nonetheless, this guy was apparently going around bragging to people about it.  So I called him up, gave him an earful, and hung up the phone before he could respond.  The fact that he didn't call me back is proof enough for me.

    Sometimes when you're feeling heartbroken, it's very easy to remember only the good parts of the relationship... 
     
    Look back on the relationship completely unbiased and you will see that she wasn't that great. 
     
    And it sounds like she's just been using you for free accommodation and support during her hard times (hence the cheating). You said the breakup was mutual, but was it really? It doesn't sound like it was... or maybe it did feel that way when you were discussing it with her. You have to be careful of girls/women, they can be very manipulative and menacing sometimes.
     
    She sounds like a bitch who tricked you into falling in love. Fuck her and everything she's about. 
     
  11. ^ Pretty much sums it up.  
     
     
    That's exactly it.  Wow.  Looking back on my first post I can't believe that I felt like that just the other day.  Hahahaha.
     
    Fuck bitches, make money.
     
  12. Same shit happened to me bro. Gotta take it a day at a time, and keep yourself as busy and as outgoing as possible. I feel for you, I really do. Shit like this can really fuck with your head, you just gotta find a way to rise above it.
     
  13. Did you kick her out? She sounds like a scathing cunt I hope her life sucks and she comes back and you shut her bitch ass down.
     
  14. Just remember, man, he doesn't care about you apparently likes her.. So don't trust his word

  15. The only person you should trust in this world is yourself.

    you could wait a few weeks/months and pop her again if you want to.  if you just don't show her any attention and live your life she'll try to come back.
     
    you just gotta get back in your lane tho.  shit happens to everybody a few times in life.  go do whatever your hobbies are/chill with other people/talk to other girls.
     
  17. well shit. hah fuck her then.
    smoke a jay and let her rot ^_^

    Yep.  She's coming for her shit this weekend.  And that would be hilarious, haha.  If it doesn't happen, at least I'll still have the satisfaction of knowing that there's absolutely no way she can spin this and make me look like the bad guy.  Well, there probably is, as some sloots have this way of going from point A here in reality, to point Z somewhere out there between Crazyville and Psychotic Fucktard Land. But whatever.
     
     
    Well looking back on it, there were signs that I never picked up on because I'm a fucking moron.  The ones I did pick up on, I never thought anything of given the circumstances, and the fact that I didn't want to believe it.   I had suspicions of something going on, but I brushed it off as me being paranoid and just needing to trust, and it's also why I said in an earlier post before I learned all of this that I didn't want to get back together with her.  This has taught me many things, one of them being if you've got a gut feeling that something is wrong, it probably is.  
     
     
    You got that right.  
     
     
     
    I'm not quite that bitter, yet.  I still have hope that some women aren't completely fucked in the head.
