Breakup

Hi! I joined yesterday the community. Honestly, I am quite reserved but I wish to make a step and share a bit of my story. Almost a month ago, I ended a relationship still in loved and hopeful. Is still hard for me, I get sad when songs are played in the radio or when I simply see him. After all, he is my childhood friend and we lived very near by. Simply, I love him deeply. However, after two years in a relationship, I started to feel unhappy, insecure and overwhelmed in the relationship. I felt I was the only trying to hold it together while he stop caring. At the end, it was ripping me apart. The more I think about it, maybe he even felt relieved it ended. All I know is that it broke my heart in pieces, I missed him and still hope something good will happened. After many days pass, I slowly started to reflect and see things differently. I was able to accomplish this with the help of a listener. I learned that you may never stop loving that person and is ok. Time will definitely take the pain and slowly fade it away. I also learned that in order for that to happen, you have to be able to accept the reality of those decisions.
