So me and my boyfriend were together for 2 years and 3 months and we recently broke up. After all that time I still just didn't feel "in love" with him. Of course, I cared about him and love him but not like that and it made me feel guilty which was depressing me and it was more of a comfort thing. So now without him I just feel so lonley. I only have a couple friends because he was my like my whole life. It just feels like no one understands how I feel now and I feel that I'll come to be depressed if I can't find a real connection with someone. Does anyone know how I can help myself get out of these complex emotions? thanks, anything helps

Alittlebroken agony auntHi,

I have also recently broke up with someone after 2 years because I didn't feel 'in love' with them. I completely understand what you are going through and the overwhelming emotions.

I think the only way to move on is with time. Time really does heal and in the mean time you need to keep yourself busy, take up new hobbies where you can meet people and make new friends. It's the only way forward. And sometimes you need to just let it out and cry until you can't cry anymore.

You are so young though, you need to go out and enjoy living life. I wouldn't advise that you start looking to meet a new man and start looking for that new connection with someone.

You need some time to yourself, to find out what you like doing and what kind of things you are good at. And once you are sorted and healed that new person will come along when you least expect it.
