babyygirllhi Posted August 4, 2011 Posted August 4, 2011 (edited) One part of me feels great (ive learned a lot about myself after the breakup) but another feels horrible .. he doesn't want to spend his life with me? What's wrong with me? (This kind of feeling) The guy is 22 and i'm 24 and going into the relationship he wasnt ready to be with someone. He has always been very independent. This showed throughout the whole 11 months we were together, so I ended up like always trying to please him and make him show more towards me. He said he is still in love with me, i'm his best friend, and the perfect girl ... but something in him wasn't happy. He didn't know what he wanted in his life etc. He wants to find a way to make money without working so that he can just do whatever he wants. (He sounds lazy, but he isn't .. just can't handle people telling him what to do). He spent a long time deciding whether or not to break up with me. And he told me that i know him better than anyone. Girls have always just gotten in the way, he isn't the dating type, and said he has never really been "attracted" to anyone, like really "wanting!" them. Except for me. he says he has never felt anything close to how he feels for me. But he ended up breaking up with me. It feels like it is because he isn't happy with himself and wants to be alone, but he doesnt ever really know why he feels things...and i think a lot of it is actually because of me. i became needy and pushy..but he was so distant and didnt show emotions so i turned this way..) He showed that he was still in love with me even through the breakup .. but said he has to be alone. Not single. Alone. Now he ran off to a big city to live in an apartment wtih his friend for 1 month and he is taking it easy and trying to find himself. I got it out of him that he sees us together in the future but didnt want to say that bc he cant have me wait. During the breakup as well, he said he misses my smile, my smell, my laugh, my thoughts on life, etc .. but none of that matters bc he needs to be alone. Im assuming that all this is because I pushed him away? I was very demanding and jealous And i regret this. He called about 1 week after we truly seperated telling me how he is lost, doesnt know what he wants in life. He just doesnt want to work, he wants to be able to do what he wants, build himself as a person. I guess he will have to experience things to realize that cant happen. I ended the convo and he sounded a little surprised (since its ALWAYS him leaving first, ending convos, etc). also, im moving back to florida in 27 days and when i told him he said he can come to me on his way back home before I move (we are in diff cities now). i said no its not a good idea. and he said nervously "well we can talk about it later, dont decide now". then he sent a text after saying "your words are wisdom to me, you know me. its hard to talk but i think its good for both of us. talk to you after italy. have fun!" . i didnt reply to the text however the next morning i wrote a long fb message about my advice, etc. it was really nice and motivating. he never replied, which doesnt surprise me. he's the type of person that if you give him something great, he doesnt know how to show it back that he liked it. so he might have read it and thought, "wow", and while most people would want to reply with "wow, thnks" he doesnt get aything out of letting the other person know. then yesterday while sitting in the airport coming back from italy i wrote him an email about myself. everything i have learned, how i used to be selfish and jealous and im feeling different and needed to find myself etc. it was me just letting everything out about my bad traits and how i feel happy that i relized this to be a better person. then i said that i wrote it quick since when i get back i will be busy and that i truly hope he is happy and that i respect that he wants to be alone. *Also, he put up his first pic on fb of us a few days ago..along with a lot of other pics from our travels of just him. STRANGE? *Should I not see him? Part of me wants to see him and just be truly independent, nice but look happy and on my own, just to show him that (because for the whole relationship ive been SUPER available and always trying to get him to be more into us, and me ..) is this a bad idea? will i feel better to show this side of me, this secure person he never saw since i was always insecure trying to get his attention? I wont be rude in anyway, but just to, for once, show my security and that im not begging for his attention... will this be good for him to see? and make me feel better?
