I ended communication with this guy today

I feel sad and happy.

Can anyone relate to that simultaneous mixture of emotions right after stopping talking to a person of interest?

I only met him once, but we have been talking a little over like 1 month.

It kind of hurts me to end it but it is in both of our best interests…it just was not working out

:,(

but i also feel relieved and more ‘normal’ again at the same time.

I say, if it is not working out, don’t waste your time and end it. :orangutan::orangutan::orangutan:

I have had to say goodbye too especially when in a deep, lingering depression. Sometimes it sucks. Mixed emotions can be normal but if you are sz those feelings may be amplified. Imho.

A few years back when I was dating , I used to talk to a lot of guys online… I used to feel exhausted trying to keep up with these guys … a lot were there for something casual and I tried really hard to fit in as I thought this is what most guys wanted.

Then I found A and it wasn’t an effort to talk to him and my head didn’t feel messed up.

I think you did right by ending the relationship now, instead of at a time when you both have a lot of emotion invested in your relationship, and it still wasn’t working out.

I honestly don’t understand why you constantly have to cut off all relations with these guys you see. Can’t you just be friends with some of them and not have to cut off all contact? You said you were talking with him. Can’t you just make it clear that you are not interested romantically but can still be friends? I don’t understand why you have to always cut off all contact with people. You kind of seem like an “all or nothing” kind of person.

Because I feel me and him are too different to be just friends. Plus I feel self conscious. :upside_down_face:

I feel sad. This morning. I want to say hello to him. But what’s the point if it is not going to work.
I’ve ended it about 15 times already with him.
Sob sob sob… Lol.

I miss him but feel I can’t be myself when I have him on my phone.

Sob.

Why dont you focus on yourself for once instead of obsessing about seeing men or potential relationships. You need to learn to love yourself before a man will love you. @Zoe

Because I’m really lonely. I don’t have any close friends. I can’t function on my own. It’s too difficult because we are social creatures. I’ve tried making friends on bumble but I can’t relate to anyone.

Thanku for the suggestion.

I have decided thou that next time it will be strictly laid back and I’m not going to allow too intense feelings. What do you think?
