RULES:


I am looking for mods!


1. The "good" part of our community means we are pro-empathy and anti-harassment. However, we don't intend to make this a "safe space" where everyone has to be a saint. Sh*t happens, and life is messy. That's why we get things off our chests.

2. Bigotry is not allowed. That includes racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia, and religiophobia. (If you want to vent about religion, that's fine; but religion is not inherently evil.)

3. Frustrated, venting, or angry posts are still welcome.

4. Posts and comments that bait, threaten, or incite harassment are not allowed.

5. If anyone offers mental, medical, or professional advice here, please remember to take it with a grain of salt. Seek out real professionals if needed.

6. Please put NSFW behind NSFW tags.

The girl I loved so much, even if I would take her for granted, just sent me a goodbye message. I don't know what this means, or in what way, but she's gone.

Lexi is gone.

The girl who would buy me stuff even when I stopped.

The girl who always texted even when I was too busy sleeping or playing Minecraft.

The lovely girl who did everything to make sure I was happy.

We just weren't on the same wavelength. She wanted to kiss me and do romantic stuff. I didn't, so I just strung her along and I talked to her about it and she said she needed some time to process what was going on...

She just said goodbye. I texted her, asking what she meant and she hasn't responded. I think she broke up with me.

I think she did break up with you. Sorry to hear, man. I think you should take a break from Lemmy and breathe. Please, going forward, respect her boundaries and don't pry further if she sent a goodbye message.

Why do you think she cared so much about something so casual?

Objection, calls for speculation!

None of us know her, can't say. I've found it helpful to discuss this sort of thing with a therapist, something about the setting blunts the impact of some of the emotional stuff and then we can focus on picking apart the issue of the day. Usually feels better once we've had a chance to talk through the areas where I could benefit from an outside perspective. Could be something to consider if you're not meeting with one already.

Due to the username and bio, gotta add in a recommendation to go to a professional with a current license rather than a joker with a cross.

~~No idea, but I hope all the love she wasted on someone who considered her nothing more than an afterthought she's now pouring into herself.~~

Hey, I'm sorry, I went and read your other comments. It seems both of you need to pour into yourselves for a long while and figure out what you really want. My b.
