COVID Romance
So my ex and I were only together for 4 months but because of COVID I feel like we were together for longer because we would spend all our time together. We basically lived together. We would spend time at my place then time at his place and not only that but we also work together so I would see him there too. We broke it off because it just felt like we were constantly bickering about the little things - I got mad at him for going to the grocery store and hearing church without me. How ridiculous was that. We broke up 3 weeks ago. But we are still each others best friends. The longest I haven’t talked to him has been a day or 2. I miss him all the time and he tells me he misses me too but he doesn’t want to get back together. I don’t understand how he can say that and have these feelings but not want to give it another shot. We are so compatible and our goals are the same - we are there for each other for anything and we still enjoy each others company. I’m definitely overthinking this but outside perspective would be lovely.
3 weeks is not a long time so it's natural that you both miss each other. I would just say to try and ask yourself whether the grass is really greener on the other side and whether you're looking back at your relationship with Rose tinted glasses because you're alone again (not judging at all, if this is the case). Also, if he has been upfront and clear about not wanting to get back together, respect his decision. If you were really meant to be then I'm sure you will one day, if not, then there's some other great person out there for you :)
This is exactly what is happening to me. Except we were living together fro 2 years. Then covid came. Our relationship changed for sure but we never fought. All if a sudden she says i want to move out. And then a month later, she did. And then says I need to be by myself for awile. Same thing. We are absolute best friends. We have a kitten and puppy together and now our family is gone and broken. She was gone for a month and i said i needed to know if she was invested in fixing us or not. She said no and my heart is absolutely torn in two. Idk what I’m saying other than i relate to you and i ask myself every hour of every day what went wrong and what can i do to fix it...? Should i try to be friends? It’s so hard. I’m hurting so bad.
