"He Texts Me Saying That we are Over"

Share Your Story: My First Breakup

From emma

How Long Had You Been Dating Before the Breakup?

Umm, on and off for about 6 months.

Who Broke Up with Whom?

He broke up with me every time.

How Did the Breakup Go Down?

My story is EXTREMELY long, but I'll give you the big picture. I met this boy online. We were on and off dating for a long time. We dated like 7 times NO joke. We loved each other and were inseparable. We talked on the phone EVERY nite. Until one day he was being oddly quiet. We went the whole day talking very little. This was our convo that nite:

me: hey babe

him: hi I'm tired, I'm going to sleep

me: ur not gonna call to say goodnite?

(calls)

me: HEY

him: did I really have to call? Well whatever, I'm going to bed.

me: wait!

him: what?

me: I love u baby

him: I know. nite (hangs up)

The next day he texts me saying that we were over

How Did You Get Over the Breakup?

Truly I'm not over it yet...it's only been a week or 3 lol. This breakup is killing me LITERALLY! I cut my arms...I don't eat or sleep anymore (looks at clock) it's 4 in the morn right now...I cry every nite....I'm soooo mad and sad!! But I still love him soo much even though I told him that I was over him.

Lessons Learned

  • I wouldn't have loved him so early on in the relationship.
  • I wouldn't have gotten so attached to him.
  • U will get over it...even though I haven't yet.
  • Don't make yourself get over him...it will happen naturally. If u force it u will just hurt even more :(
  • Don't take him bak more than once, u r most likely to break up again...SOON
  • And ps..this is not my first breakup but it was the first one that actually hurt me.
  • GOOD LUCK LADIES!!!!!...(or gentlemen ;))
