I was in a two year long relationship at 16 where I was 100% sure I found my soulmate and the person I was going to marry. I never ever at any point thought we would split up, but we did. And were not even friends anymore. After that, I was extremely heartbroken and unstable. Out of nowhere, this guy that I was friends with in class admits he has a crush on me. I was extremely hesitant, still heartbroken, and took a couple months to open up, but it was really good! Then one day, he just sort of ghosted me and it ended cold turkey. I was left heartbroken again. It was super tough, but I got through it. Then I decided to go on dating apps to hopefully find someone to talk to or potentially be with for the summer. After a month, I found someone I really liked. We started going on dates and I really liked him! It got pretty serious. We had a few moments where we had problems, but we came back to each other still. The summer came to an end and I was leaving so we decided to end things. If we came back to each other, then we would.

Now Im just left here very confused. I feel so hopeless and weary of my love life. I dont know what to expect for the future. I dont know what to think of the past. I feel like Ill never find the one. And that Ill keep getting in these disposable relationships. I dont know if I should give up, take a break for a while, or keep trying. I dont know if I should be looking for love or just let it come to me.

Please, if you have any advice, spiritual or serious or casual, whatever, please share it!

Hey, thank you so much for sharing this with us. Being in relationships that arent long lasting can really make one feel less hopeful about relationships and its very valid. I hope you find the compatible lasting relationship you are searching for soon. Have a great day ahead.
