Confused & Broken. It's ruining my life that I need him so much.

Tagged as: Breaking up<< Previous question   Next question >>
Question - (16 December 2012) 2 Answers - (Newest, 17 December 2012)
A female United Kingdom age 30-35, anonymous writes:

So I've liked this guy for .... 3 years. We used to have a "thing" and it just ended. When it did I was heartbroken and ever since then we've just been like best friends but lately he's been ignoring me like shamelessly tweeting and seeing his friends and just not saying a word to me. I know I still really love him and people always say "just forget about him" or "i know its hard but just move on" and it isn't that simple because we've been friends for 3 years and he knows everything about me. I'm not sure what to do or how to do it but it's ruining my life to need him so much.

So_Very_Confused agony auntthree years at your age is a long time and you say you just ended it... so it's still raw...

I don't believe that you can be "just friends" with ex partners. I see no need to remain friends with ex partners that you do not have children with.

You still really love him which will never work out as just friends as you will hurt over and over...

The BEST thing to do dear is go no contact. It sucks I know. But it's the easiest way to get over someone.

There is no need to pour salt in your wound... there is no need for you to be friends with him.

Block his social media.

block his email

block his phone number

then you have no clue if he's ignoring you and you can move forward with your life.

It will take time and it will hurt but each day with no contact means you will hurt less and less....

aunt honesty agony auntHave you actually told him how you feel? You say he is a good friend, so you need to open up to him and be honest with him, tell him how you feel about him and ask him straight out does he feel the same. If not then you need to distance yourself from him and accept that he does not want to pursue anything with you. Either way you need to talk to him so that you can move forward.
