Hey there, that would be me. :) I hope you feel better when you read this after work. I can understand what you're going through and I'm going to tell you something right now.

When you've read this and turned off the computer, you're going to feel alone. And it's going make you feel miserable.

DON'T. What I'd like you to do is to write your story here. Tell me all about it, because I'm here to listen to you.

And after you've done that, please try to do something. Don't sit there. Watch a movie. Call a friend. Read a book.

I'm going to be here, all right? I promise. Because I went through the same thing that you did. And your ex sounds so much like mine. And I know you're an awesome dude, and I don't want you to go through the same pain that I did.

Cheers.

I did feel alone when I got home and off the computer... I tried to distract myself with video games and things but I still see her posts on tumblr. About how much she loves "yuri" now. About her plans after she graduates. Plans that always used to involve me.

I talked to her last weekend... On Skype for two and a half hours and found out she's still confused but she's acting like she's not. I'll write my story. It's just going to take awhile. It's not easy to write and I like to include a lot of details just in case. And it's not easy, either.

Lupermattroid I get how you're feeling. I still deeply care for my ex and have to see him every day in classes and organizations so I know what he's up to and how he is without me. The lonliness really sunk in today, but I totally recommend you go to the self help guides here on the site and reading the surviving break ups guide. I'm going to use the charts to help move on, and if you want to we can kind of check up on each other's progress and basically swap stories.
