The guy I dated for a year and four months broke up with me on March 1st. We were fighting a lot recently and he said he was tired of being hurt and feeling abused/like a punching bag etc. I apologized but he said he didn't want to be in a relationship anymore, to let him go, etc.

I have not contacted him since but I have not had an easy time going through all of this either. I just hope his heart is healing and he is doing better. :(

If anything, I am hoping he will come back in the next few months. Is it healthy for me to still have hope? :(

Also, is it normal for me to feel anxiety at times when I think about the breakup and how he's gone? I get a lump in my throat that makes me feel I can't breathe. I've never experienced such a painful loss. Me and this guy had plans to get married and have a family of our own someday. We were even going to attend the same college this fall.

Advice? Comments? Thanks.

It is never easy to go through a break up. Anxiety is a normal feeling as well. You spend a lot of time together and now he is gone, of course is it going to be hard.

 

Hope is a awful thing and not healthy to have. It is something you need to let go of quickly. He is already gone and there isn't much that can be done now. I was with my ex for almost 2 years, living with him and planned to marry him. Things change, babe... and promises and plans are broken all the time and never actually happen.

 

My advice would be to be sad for a bit and mourn the loss, do not speak to him at all for any reason, lose any or all hope you have and take care of yourself. Start worrying about yourself and do things for you. Keep busy and it will get easier.

It sounds like this is a high school romance. Things will get better when you start college next year and meet much better guys. Trust me.
