xxHeartxx Posted February 25, 2007 Posted February 25, 2007 hey all, Ive been my boyfriend around 5 years since i was young(first love).. We always got on great i mean were madly in love but just a few days ago OUT OF THE BLUE i got a text msg saying i dont think things are working out! My boyfriend has no reasons whatsoever why he finished it with me other than "i dont want to be settled anymore"..but ive never looked at it this way because i always thought "being settled down"meant having babies and getting married??not just being in a realtionship... The thing im really hurt about is that i was dumped through a text message...i really thought i knew him better than that and now he wont answer my calls,hes ignoring me:( Ive treated him so well and showed him nothing but love and care and he knows that! Its very hard to try and get over him as hes my first love and i love him so much!! i can hardly sleep and i get upset all the time now im very unhappy without him..I miss him dearly:( Id like a bit of advise please if possible Thanks alot!x
RocketMan2 Posted February 25, 2007 Posted February 25, 2007 Hi Heart, Welcome to LS! You'll find lots of people on here in a similar situation to you so don't worry, theres plenty of help and advice at hand "Out of the blue" breakups are one of the worst kind (i know - i'm trying to cope with one right now). One of the hardest obstacles is that your 'coming to terms' has only just begun, where as he will have been considering it for some time. You should be considerate of this fact in your healing, as it will greatly help you. Your first course of action should be NC which means NO CONTACT. Contact is not just defined as talking to him, but also covers emails, texts, reading his myspace, looking at photos etc etc. In order to either heal or bring him back, you need to stop all contact. The primary objective of NC is to heal yourself. To help you come to terms with your own feelings, wants and needs, without any other distractions. Its hard, I know, trust me. Im sorry to tell you this, but as you said it was a first love relationship, and youre both pretty young. He probably just wants to go off and experience the single life, if he hasnt already got someone else. I know thats not what you want to hear, but the sooner you accept it the better, trust me. Im in exactly the same position. Putting thoughts off, avoiding emotions and locking things away in your head is the worst thing you can do, at this early stage anyway. The only point at which you should allow a breach of the NC is if he contacts you, saying exactly what needs to be said. Anything else is him fishing for an ego boost. If you want him back, you need to be the person he fell for, or better. Being a miserable, broken down shell of the person you used to be isnt going to make him want to come back. Get yourself down the gym, get fit, buy some new clothes. Do things for yourself to make YOU feel good. Keep yourself busy most importantly. Hang in there. Just remember, if you feel yourself weakening to contact, post on here first and we will whip you into shape! Rocket
Author xxHeartxx Posted February 27, 2007 Author Posted February 27, 2007 Thanks for the reply Rocketman2!! A bit of an update...he txt me yesterday saying he missed me, i told him i missed him too and then he asked me to go over and have a talk, so i was delighted when he asked me but as i was talking to him i started crying and he told me that he doesnt know yet if he wants to get back that he just needs a bit of time and that the last thing he wants to do is hurt me because he loves me very much! He said that we will always be friends and that he'll always be there for me only that he needs some time to think on things because he wants to let his hair down for a while! but i dont want to be friends i just want to be with him and i have told him this! Im really clueless about the whole thing? Does anyone think that we'll get back with eachother? Any sugestions?
