I recently broke up with my girlfriend of the last 3 years, and the worst part is I am still in love with her. It came as such a shock, I just feel so fucked up. Please tell me it gets easier.
You know, that sounds like almost a perfect description of our relationship, even the ages and time frames are the same. The difference being the jealousy thing, and she has a few other reasons instead of that one. Everything else is spot on.Spruce Goose said:Blitz, I went through the same thing last year. GF of 3 yeats/best friends all that shit. We broke up for a few reasons. One being that she was jealous. Like really bad if I was talking to another girl and another being that I had been with her since we were 17 and hadnt really 'played the field' as it were.
That is what I have been telling myself for the last few days, but from what she has told me about how she feels I don't know if we will give it another chance. I honestly think it would work if we did, after the break, but it probably won't happen.Spruce Goose said:Anywa, as I said, we broke up, and I had about 6 months being single. I 'played the field' for a bit and did get with a few other girls, but it wasnt really all it was cracked up to be. I ended up getting back together with my GF and we are still together now a year later. It is so much better now cause she realised she had to get over the jealousy thing or it would never work.
Is there any chance of reconcilliation? I'm guessing she ended it?
Yeah, I am trying to look on the bright side, but it is hard. Will come easier in the coming months I guess.Spruce Goose said:It's not the end of the world dude. You will get over it in a month or two and realise that there aer plenty of fish in the sea. I hate it when people say that things happen for a reason, but maybe this isnt the worst thing that could happen. You might meet someone who is a sick bitch!
That gave me a bit of a lift. Cheers dude.spawn said:I cant imagine you staying single for long now that I am going to loan you my original purple robe and wizard hat
Stay cheery, I cant even imagine what a depressed Blitzy would be like
It depends on how really over it is. If it's really, really over, then you can't really keep being friends, no matter how much you want to. It's tough to hear, but I think you'd be better off settling your affairs (i.e. get your crap back off her and give hers back) and just breaking off all contact for 6 months and see how you feel after that. A clean break is better than hanging on to a hope that may never eventuate.Blitzkrieg said:Another thing that has me wondering what I should do, is to remain friends or not. She is content with remaining good friends, and while I want to I don't know whether I should or not. I will always have feelings for her, but if they aren't returned it just might hurt too much. But if I pretty much stop talking to her, it will turn my world upside down. We talk all the time on the phone and the net, and I get advice from her and tell her about everything. Also, when I see her moving on it will be horrible. Ugg.
Jesus Christ lady, it's a vagina not a clown car.
