I Lost My Best Friend And My Heart Is Shattered

So yeah, as the title says, I feel like I have lost my best friend and I am now pretty broken. He told me last night that though he has always cared about all of his friends, there is one in particular that he wants to reach out to again (please keep in mind that this isn't as simple as it sounds because this person he is reaching out to we have both had a long and complicated history with), and I feel like I have really lost touch with him and that I can never again be close to him like I have been. Which hurts. A lot. I have lived my life for this man for the last two years. I have been there through everything, changed my life so I could help him. And now I am in a new place, in a new city, and now feeling very very alone.

It's so difficult to be friends after something like this. It's impossible for me to act different. I end up hating the person and that makes it worse for me.

@Searchingforafriend anytime. Take care of yourself. It's OK to care, just not at the expense of your happiness.

@CallmeHopelessNotRomantic I have been doing so much at the expense of my own happiness for so long I am not sure what that feels like at this point. But it would be really nice to experience it.

@Searchingforafriend do what you have to. The important people will understand. If they don't understand, they probably aren't meant to be in your life.

That's sad to hear. I hope you're able to work through it.

Are you pissed he chose this friend over you?
That hurts,but you will have to decide if the sperate friendship you have with him is worth it or not.

@Searchingforafriend Would he not talk to you about the ex if you asked him not too?
I have a friend who hurt me pretty badly,but he means so much to me, we made a sorta truce.

@SW-User I asked him not to tell me what they talk about if they do start talking again regularly, but he just kind of got hurt by it and left the room. So honestly I am not sure at this point what will happen with him telling me things. But I can't go through dealing with my ex again.

@Searchingforafriend He might just need some space to think things over...silly guys and that space needing business
