My heart refuses to understand why he didn’t choose me
Relationship Stress / by Gabrielamtineo
Last post
January 23rd
...See more Hi everyone. I’m writing today because I feel completely emotionally exhausted. I’ve reached that painful point where my mind understands the reality, but my heart flatly refuses to accept it. I fell in love like never before. I was willing to give everything, I would have "parted the sea in two" for this person. And even though he claims his feelings for me are strong, he has decided to walk away. He is choosing the "comfort" of his situation just to avoid risks or "complications." The hardest part is that we share the same environment (we study/work together). I see him every day. He smiles at me, tells me I look beautiful, and we share moments where everything feels perfect for a second and that has become a drg to me. I am going through the most brutal withdrawal of my life. I feel terrible because I still have this tiny flame of hope burning inside, waiting for a miracle that my brain knows will never happen. I feel like "the stupid one" left holding all this love in my hands while he just moves on with his life. I feel a physical emptiness in my chest and I keep asking myself: Why do I have this capacity to love so much if I’m never the one who gets chosen? How do you kill hope when you still have to look that person in the eyes every single day? I just needed to vent. I feel like I’m losing my mind thinking about this 24/7 and I don’t know how to get my peace back.

He melted my heart just to tell me he won't choose me.

...See more Hi everyone. I’m writing because I feel completely numb. I have a painful past; I came out of a very toxic relationship that forced me to lock my heart away. I swore I would never let anyone in again. But then he appeared. Even though he often told me he "didn't want a relationship" and constantly tried to hold me back, his actions said something else. He was so sweet, so persistent, and so affectionate that he slowly melted my defenses. I fought it, but eventually, I let my guard down. I allowed myself to love him, even with all the warnings he gave me. Today, it all came crashing down. He confessed that he loves me deeply even saying he's "ten times more in love with me than I am with him" but he finally confirmed what I feared: he will never choose me. He told me I’m a "10/10 woman" and that he’s devastated, yet he’s choosing to stay in his current life, away from me. He wants us to be "friends" because he says he can't bear to lose me, but he’s already decided we have no future. I feel hollow. It feels like he snatched away the last bit of love I had left. After fighting so hard to heal from my past, I now feel incapable of ever loving anyone else. He broke through my walls just to leave me standing there alone. I just need to know if anyone else has felt this void, the pain of a heart being "melted" only to be broken. Thanks for listening.

...See more I have always felt insecure with my physique especially with my weight, these months I have not been well since I have become obsessed with becoming thinner and thinner to the level that I do not recognize myself in the photos. My friends and my partner try to help me but imagining myself being again as before (although I wasn't bad before) makes me feel bad, I know I must stop but something won't let me.

...See more I have never been so close to my dad, he is a responsible person and has always been for me but for reasons of distance etc we have never connected emotionally. I found out that he is sick, I didn't want to tell almost anyone and I haven't talked much about how I feel about it, but even though we haven't been so close, that news broke me down. I have not stopped feeling guilty about the fights and annoyances we have had before although my mom tries to reassure me by saying "you could not have imagined his illness before" but I still feel that I have the time counted, I will try to get closer to him and enjoy the time we have since in the end he is a good father. I won't leave him alone during this process.

...See more I use to had really bad anxiety and it was affecting my life until a point that I was getting mad because I couldn’t control my on body or how noticeable it was for people that I didn’t felt comfortable to show them that part of my life but I felt like I should be more focused on myself and work on it instead of faking like it wasn’t there. I’m really happy because today I have almost 2 weeks since my last bad panic attack and the feelings and thoughts, I still have a long way to go and im really focus on that but im happy of how it’s going and im really proud of finding myself again, I really missed my old me but I’m getting her back and I can feel how that helped in my daily life and close friends too. Thank you for read it🥰

A good day after a bad week

...See more This has not been my best week, things have happened to me that have really devastated me and anxiety consumed me but I am proud to finally know what to do about it. Bad things will always happen and I have to learn to face it and calm my anxiety since it does not help my health, I did the things that I normally do during an anxiety attack but I knew how to stop and analyze the situation with a clear mind and recognize that it was not my blame and I should stop blaming myself so much for things I don't control so I relaxed and started looking for the positive side of the situation which made me feel much better and I finally had the first good day after so many days and months of stress. which got worse and worse. It is something I am proud of since one of my goals is to learn to live with my anxiety and accept it but not let it consume me.

...See more I was in a class this semester and I gave all of me and my energy so I would pass it with good grades but my principal gave us the final exam for no reason and took out the teacher, the exam was so hard that 20 of our 27 students failed including me. Im so devastated that I don’t know if I want to keep studying, i studied hard and I didn’t see good results so I would think what I’m going to do with my feelings cause right now I have to many that I don’t know what I even feel
