Share Your Story: My First Breakup

From lousy

How Long Had You Been Dating Before the Breakup?

approx. 3 months

Who Broke Up with Whom?

He broke up with me

How Did the Breakup Go Down?

Well, over text. I texted him because his best friend Erin, who is also my best friend, told me that I needed to talk to him. Well I said yeah, I do, because over the last week and a half he was acting weird, and plus he was in Tennessee for a while so I needed to know what was going on. So I texted him and said hey, we need to talk. He said he was sorry, and I said for what, and he said that he lost interest in me and that he needs new things. And I just said OK, I'm sorry, and that was that.

How Did You Get Over the Breakup?

I didn't yet and I'm suffering!!! I don't know why I can't get over him, this is killing me literally, I'm cutting my arm and I'm crying all night, not sleeping, and I can't really eat. I've lost 5 pounds in the last week and I don't know, I'm having serious trouble. This is really terrible! I hate it because I want to be over him but I just can't be. He wasn't even that nice to me all the time, but he had his momentsssssssssssssssss!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lessons Learned

  • To not trust guys.
  • To not date.
  • I would never let a guy know I was interested in them first, they are from now on coming to me!
