shutes Posted August 11, 2012 Posted August 11, 2012 My ex and I (7 months) broke up 2 weeks ago because he wasn't happy and it wasn't working. Although I was shocked and hurt, I felt like I was doing better than I had in previous breakups. The majority of our relationship was spent as long-distance so I think I am just used to him not being around. Unfortunately, I had to break NC after only a week and a half because I found out some medical results that were going to affect him too. I knew it was the right thing to do. We wound up talking for almost four hours, going back and forth between the medical stuff and our relationship. (Not a good idea). I pretty much was everything he wanted in a girlfriend, but he is so unbelievably ****ed up from his previous relationship, that he couldn't emotionally attach himself to me. Although I felt okay the night that we talked, since then I've been a mess. I feel like I took a MAJOR backstep by talking to him. I feel like I am so much more emotionally distraught than I was the first week and a half. I'm having a harder time now making myself do things, and even when I go out with friends, I'm not myself and am just plain quiet. I just don't know how to deal with this now, ESPECIALLY since I know I'm going to need to contact him again when I get more test results back. Much support is needed
