Sophie99 Posted February 27, 2012 Posted February 27, 2012 My boyfriend of almost 2 years broke up with me around a month ago now. He was my first relationship and so I'm finding everything really difficult. Anyway, one of the things that seems to get me down most is the broken promises. He promised me what many peoples boyfriends promise, that he would never leave me etc. Clearly those promises were empty. When I think of these broken promises, I get such an awful feeling in my stomach, and it really breaks my heart even more. Has anybody got any advice on dealing with broken promises from a relationship that has now ended? Thank you x
Philosoraptor Posted February 27, 2012 Posted February 27, 2012 Understand that they may or may not have had intentions at the time to keep those promises... but things change and people change. What was a promise meant to be kept one day suddenly changes when new information presents itself. Just take care of yourself and in time you will learn to accept that the past is the past and nothing to concern yourself with anymore.
broken-and-lost Posted February 27, 2012 Posted February 27, 2012 sophie i'm sorry your going through this and that's it's your first time hell i can tell you i've had many loves in my life and they have all made promises they could not keep sometimes people say and do things in the moment unfortunately know one can really make promises for the future it's always best to just go with things and try to live in today. People break promises all the time and it can hurt really badly when they do but most people really mean it at the time but life does not not moving and things change sometimes for the better sometime not so hopefully you will find someone that one day actually keeps all them promises and you keep all of yours always try to live your life for you and make yourself happy if someone complements and stays around for the journey then great but try never to pin your hopes on other people. I know all of this will offer no comfort right now as you will be hurting and going through a lot of emotions but you will come out the other ok and live your life making new promises to yourself keep your chin up and post here when things get you down it does help
lovelylashes Posted February 27, 2012 Posted February 27, 2012 Im sorry to hear your going through an awful time. Especially because he is your first love. You probably think at this moment that you will never love anyone again. But you will eventually meet someone else and you will probably kiss a lot of frogs Untill you find your prince. But you will get over him, just give it time and try and spend time with friends and family.
