How did you get over your breakup?

It feels like I am drowning. I came home and they had taken everything of theirs out while I was at work. I want so desperately to talk to them, and now I have my final confirmation that it is dead and done. I wish they would just knock on the door. I need to accept that this is it but I just can't let that thought sink in or it will anchor me down for good.

I feel for you and feel your pain. Ihad a breakup that I bet was a lot like yours when I was close to your current age. I can tell you that relationship is a spec in my rear view mirror today. Time fixes so much of it. At the time the internet wasn't it was today but I gave myself a healing plan.

I started to type out my healing plan but i am sure it doesn't matter --but I had one--a healing plan I wrote it out and just moved slow. I didn't date for about 6-12 months and slowly worked through it throwing time into hobbies instead and sorta waded my way back into the dating pool slowly in months 6-12.

If you partner removed their stuff from your home it was probably over long before that event happened. You probably got your confirmation months ago but may be having issues emotionally reconciling it today.

I am sorry for your pain
