dazednconfuzed Posted April 1, 2007 Posted April 1, 2007 My gf broke up with me one week after Valentine's Day and two weeks before our 1 year anniversary. I didn't see it coming. One week she was asking me to take some time off cuz she was planning a trip for my birthday ... and the next she was having a fling with somebody else! I was strong when she broke up with me. I didn't cry when I found out she had a fling or when she said something had just changed in her and that the affair with this new person was only one small reason she wanted to end it with me. She just didn't think things were going to work out between us. I put her pictures/cards into a folder and tucked it away in my closet. I moved her e-mails to another folder, hidden from sight. And I have not contacted her since ... even though, recently, she sent me a text message apologizing and wanting to explain things because she didn't feel right leaving things with me this way. I guess I don't care about her explanation or her apology. I rarely think about her anymore. For me, it feels as if we were never a couple at all. Six days after we broke up, I met and slept with a new girl. I told her what happened with my ex and that I'd like to keep things casual between us for at least a few months until I recover from my last relationship. She is okay with that, so we are dating and having fun together. Here's my problem ... I know that I loved my ex, very much. Our relationship was my longest, most serious relationship. I believed in my heart that she was the one. So why can't I let the pain that must be inside of me, out? Why can't I cry? Is this normal? Thanks.
