hii! hope ur all doing great! last christmas, i met P through an ex-friend. he dm me and within a week, we got super close. the chemistry was THERE. ive never connected with someone like that in my life. we would have endless convos. by early jan, i started to like him a lot. he claimed to like me too, even saying "ily" in such a short time, which was obv odd but i hadnt realised back then. to this day, i still dk if it was lovebombing or genuine. i dont think he truly loved me, but def did liked me asp. we had been thru everything tg. (btw P had visited his cousin for xmas, who introduced us. P used to live in my town but moved 4 hrs away. we never met b4 since hes older & had no mutuals.) we talked abt meeting up but he kept avoiding it. a few months ahead, his sis -now my bsf- told me he never wanted to rly hang out & shared our chats w her. he went back to his city, disappeared for 2 weeks bc he was in a relationship which ended, then returned, apologizing and saying he missed me. i was hesitant but moved on. from mid jan to march, i faced family issues and depression, he supported me thru everything, making me feel deeply cared for. i started falling in love with him. in march, he got another girlfriend, pushed me away, and we had a big fight. blocked me for a month, then came back like last time. despite being heartbroken, i went back, and things were back like nun happened. things were going soo well. i had trusted that man w my entire life, he knew me so well. we were never in a relationship, just a situationship. one day in may he randomly left me on read, i didnt text back. my best friend told me he reconciled w his ex. i felt unappreciated, & constantly on an emotional rollercoaster. he always gave me mixed signals and talked to others, never being exclusive, which always hurt and confused me. y was i never enough? even tho he said and showed he cared, i was exhausted. he broke up in august and in september we reconnected. we had a deep talk about our lives lately, his university and plans and trying again, since he would be even closer to me next year. i broke down, sharing how i felt & he made me feel safe and loved again. but this time, i couldnt open up like before. i didnt trust him how i did. the person who felt like my soulmate. i became so insecure around him id reply hours later, afraid hed judge me. in less than a week, we lost contact. the chem was gone bc of me. he hurt me so bad bro. i miss us and i still love him. i wish everything was the same. our memories r so pure and sweet, i get so nostalgic every time i think of them. i seriously feel like we are soul tied. we always find a way back to each other. i feel like our story never ends and especially not when he'll come back to his hometown. i dont rly want him anymore. i jus feel empty w/o him. i look for him everywhere and i cant catch feelings for anyone i have met those past months. there r no ppl like him. im so confused w how hes feeling, i have never got clear answers to my questions which makes me feel worse. i could talk about him for hours. so much therapy and i still cant get over him. i dont know what else to do. i love him sm and i hope next year he decides to grow up and try again. should i move on w my life? and how should i? im 100% sure he will come back tho. i tried to make this as short as possible, but trust me its such a longer story, i appreciate everyone who read this. thank u so so much. i jus want to stop feeling like this. please help a girl out ! thank u again endlessly and hope the best for u. xx <3

hey lovelyy

first of all, I'm so sorry you had to go through all of that. I am not a true expert at all since I've only dealt with one toxic ex but imo you def need to get over this man at all costs. It is quite clear he neglects you whenever he has the attention of others but runs back to you once he has no one to gain that feeling of love. What really helped me to get over someone is to occupy your mind as much as possible. Fill your schedule, make plans/goals that gives you motivation or uplifting energy. If you like trying new things, you should really go for that (sense of achievement for your strengths). You don't have to find anyone else romantically to get over him cause it's basically 50/50 that you actually move on and its not really a good option to go for. Depending how extrovert or introverted you are, spending time with individuals is a musttt and I mean friends that support you and are there for you and who knows maybe even family members would be fulfilling. Do not feel bad about having an attachment towards anyone, go at your own pace and soon you will get over him without any realisation. I really wish you the best and have a lovely dayy <3.
