Author bflowers85 Posted June 23, 2014 Author Share Posted June 23, 2014 Yeah, it sucks being broken up with. I know that I'm feeling miserable right now but I can't force anyone to be with me. I wonder what my ex would've said if I had answered his call last night. It would be nice to have access to what the other person is thinking or feeling. There is very helpful information and advice on here. I just wish my situation wasn't so screwed up. I miss him so much it hurts. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Smarty Pants Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 Yes. I ended a 5 year relationship 5 months ago and started regretting it about 3 months after the fact. Immediately post break up I was very sad and depressed (see my posts on here) but the actual regret didn't come until later. It's too late for my attempt at reconciliation - My ex got engaged 1 month ago to someone she started dating 2 months after our breakup (WTF). We have not talked in 1 month (since I found out about engagement). I miss her terribly and will always have a pit in my stomach when I think about the way things turned out. So she got engaged after dating him for 2 months? I'll never understand why people do things like that. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Mondmellonw Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 So she got engaged after dating him for 2 months? I'll never understand why people do things like that. (This is a little out of topic) I think they do it because they're still stuck in the honeymoon period and they believe everything is always going to be that way. Maybe... And about the thread. Yup, I have regretted dumping someone. Once. He got a gf, but at the time I was happy for him. 3 Link to post Share on other sites
beembm Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 So she got engaged after dating him for 2 months? I'll never understand why people do things like that. After dating *her* for 2 months but yes... (I'm a woman too) And my ex was the one to propose! I can't understand it AT ALL, and neither can anyone else I tell. Everyone says it's crazy. Engaged after 2 months is crazy alone, but engaged after only 2 months of dating, AND after a bad breakup of a 5 year relationship... I can't wrap my head around it at all. And that's the really painful part, because I feel like I don't even know her anymore and it makes it that much more surreal, and makes her feel that much further away.

Smarty Pants Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 I've never regretted breaking up with someone because it was always the right thing to do at the time. I have gotten back together with all my previous exes, but I didn't regret when we broke up a second time. We just weren't right for each other. No big deal, there are plenty of matches out there. I'm sure I could have a great relationship with one of my exes. But that isn't possible and it isn't proactive to dwell on the past. Link to post Share on other sites
