How Long Had You Been Dating Before the Breakup?
1 year and 3 months
Who Broke Up with Whom?
I broke up with him.
How Did the Breakup Go Down?
There was a lot of problems between us and his parents, his parents didn't like me and had no reason to. So I broke up with him hoping things at home would get better for him, as things weren't really changing we had discussed getting back together. I wanted to get back together and told him that but he didn't want to which really hurt. He had moved on and started talking to this girl that he swam with and they eventually started dating. I cried for a month straight. Within that month we had started talking again and he broke up with his girlfriend. Things only got worse so he didn't want to get back together.
How Did You Get Over the Breakup?
It had taken me 4 months to get over the breakup but I'm not fully over it yet. My friends played a big role in me getting over the breakup and me starting a journal on how I felt about the situation and realizing that it was never going to be the same and meeting new people was another way to get over him.
Lessons Learned
- If I could do it all over again differently, I would of definitely tried harder to stay on his parents good side and i would of never broke up with him in the first place.
- I've learned that everything happens for a reason and that only I know what's best for me, and this relationship wasn't what was best for me even if I didn't want to realize it or believe it.
