Boyfriend broke up with me

[Mylovelifeisinshams]

My boyfriend broke up with me because he wants to focus on him which I feel is bull crap because we have a long distance relationship. He was just with me for Valentine’s Day now all of a sudden he’s saying he wants to focus on his life and what he’s doing for the next 5 years. He’s 26 and I’m 23 . I’ve been crying non stop I Don’t wanna give this up but I don’t want to beg anyone to be with me

I remember you from your post in January where the relationship was falling apart. This was the beginning of the end.

 

Yes, his reason is obviously untrue. It's a standard line given when we don't feel like hashing through all the drama. The real reason would have been that he couldn't deal with the fights about your stance on his social media use. He probably also wants someone local who he can see more easily.

 

Go and find your Mr Right. Don't waste time trying to mould Mr Wrong into being the one.

He's not a good one for you. He's not anywhere near wanting any commitment. He just wants to do what he wants to do, and to be in a longterm relationship, you have to be able to compromise. Plus it's long distance, so that's 90 percent not going to last anyway. He doesn't want a longterm relationship.

 

Just put it behind you and leave him alone and move on and find a local guy! Then you can actually have a real relationship.

I agree with basil.

 

This break-up was coming, and it sounds as though it's going to be for the best, OP. You were not happy with a few things in the relationship and he isn't willing to put in the level of commitment needed to sustain a long-distance relationship.
