Heartbreak

[Fake]

I’ve recently split up with my partner. It’s been a few months and I’m in so much pain. I cry every single day. I feel like I’m going absolutely crazy. Now I truly understand why they call it heartbreak I feel like my heart has shattered into pieces. It hurts so so so much. This is the lowest I’ve ever been. I’m in absolute agony over him. 
It also hurts to know that he is completely over me and he is is absolutely fine and he is living his best life. I wish I could switch off like him but I can’t, I still love him, I love him so much. 
 

Can people please please share their stories on heartbreak so I can see that I’m not alone and please tell me that it gets better, will I get over this? Please tell me I will and please tell me what to do to cope and get through this

Sorry this is happening. How long were you together? Did you live together? What was the reason for the breakup?

Hopefully you have no contact and have severed all ties and deleted and blocked him and all his people from ALL your social media and messaging apps.

Please reach out to trusted friends and family. Try a support group or therapy help you unpack and sort out feelings.

Heartbreaks hurt but you will eventually recover.

Did he leave you for someone else or did you break up with him?

Yes, you’ll get over it but it’s a choice you make and a decision to put yourself first - start figuring out what you need in life to make you happy and I don’t mean this lousy relationship that ended in heartbreak. If he’s living his best life you know he wasn’t happy with you and you deserve better than that. 

Take time to feel sad and grieve and cry but be very clear with yourself that this is over and you will need to start making decisions in your best interests if not already. Please sever any ties financially and legally, appropriately. Discuss with a lawyer if you have shared assets and figure out any joint accounts. Take his name off of your accounts if needed. Be realistic and down to earth please and don’t get swept away by pain. It is painful yes but take care of yourself.

It would be nice to have more of the story...

Who broke it off? It sounds like he did as you are the one in pain.

What was the reason for ending the relationship? 

Time heals. Go no contact. Just consider him dead to you, ignore and walk away from any discussion about him, you don't need to hear it. Keep busy, go for walks, keep or get fit. Stay away from drugs and alcohol.

If he was the one who broke up with you, he was probably over you before he broke up with you.  That is why it feels to you that he is fine and living his best life.   It takes time to get over someone so be gentle with yourself.  Try to get out with friends and not isolate yourself.  It will get better.
