10 Positive Break Up Quotes And What We Can Learn From Them

2.1K Flares 2.1K Flares ×

It’s time for another “quotes” article.

This time it’s going to be a collection of some of the most inspiring break up quotes.

What is it that is so fascinating about break up quotes anyway?

First of all, they help us to realize that we are not alone out there. People have suffered from broken hearts back through hundreds of years.

Thinking that you are alone with your break up is not as absurd as many of you perhaps might think. One of the main characteristics of break ups is that we are overcome with overwhelming loneliness. Knowing that other people have had this problem too, and survived, gives you comfort and strength to hang in there.

On the other side, it’s always helpful to see another angle. Artists especially seem to have a different view of the world and life – their gift is to enliven the unaware. They help us to understand what we may already know in our minds, but the feelings in our heart resist believing.

So, I’ve collected the 10 most inspiring break up quotes for you, which not only sound good, but actually make you feel better and more positive about the future if you are going through a break up right now.

Here they are:

The 10 most positive and inspiring break up quotes:

  1. “‘Tis better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all.”

    —Alfred Lord Tennyson

  2. Everyone who has suffered from a broken heart at any time has heard this quote. Unfortunately it does not give comfort at the beginning, only years later will you realize its profoundness and value.

    When you understand its true meaning, then you’ll know that you’ve overcome your break up or divorce.

    It is one of my favorite break up quotes.

  3. “If you really love something set it free. If it comes back it’s yours, if not it wasn’t meant to be.”

    —unknown

  4. I heard this the first time in the movie Indecent Proposal. It illustrates the necessity of detachment, of “letting go” after a break up.

    If you can let go, you will receive.

  5. “You have to forgive to forget, and forget, to feel again.”

    —unknown

  6. There is no moving on without forgiveness, and more importantly: there is no new beginning while carrying “old emotional baggage”.

  7. “Those who do not know how to weep with their whole heart do not know how to laugh either.”

    —Golda Meir

  8. Experiencing the negative emotions is part of life. Only if we are able to go through them with our full consciousness can we also appreciate and benefit from the positive ones.

  9. “Relationships are like glass. Sometimes it’s better to leave them broken than try to hurt yourself putting it back together.”

    —unknown

  10. Sometimes relationships can’t be fixed. That is when it’s better to move on. Sad, but very often true.

  11. “Some people think that it’s holding on that makes one strong; sometimes it’s letting go.”

    —unknown

  12. Only when you are able to completely detach yourself, can you be free. After a break up, and elsewhere in life. Be a leaf floating in a river, not knowing where it might take you. This is true freedom.

  13. “The loss of love is not nearly as painful as our resistance to accepting it is.”

    —Tigress Luv

  14. Acceptance is one important step in healing from a break up. This is part of the painful first phase.

  15. “I’m going to smile and make you think I’m happy, I’m going to laugh, so you don’t see me cry, I’m going to let you go in style, and even if it kills me – I’m going to smile.”

    —Lone Star

  16. This is actually some great break up advice in two ways: first you are not being needy in front of your Ex, you demonstrate strength and your Ex may wonder if s/he has made the right decision.

    Also, constant smiling despite the fact that you feel terrible is a great way “to trick” your mind. By smiling, the body sends signals to the mind that you are happy, even if you are not. Eventually the mind WILL accept the state of the body.

    This is simple neuro-linguistic programming.

  17. “Pain is inevitable. Suffering is optional.”

    —M. Kathleen Casey

  18. This is a great one.

    It means that you have the choice to accept the pain and not allow it to turn into suffering.

    One of the main reasons that mental pain turns into suffering is continual mental reasoning. We can break that vicious cycle by learning to control our thoughts.

  19. “I don’t miss him, I miss who I thought he was.”

    —unknown

It is a great accomplishment to realize that we loved a concept, a picture we had in our minds, rather than the person himself. When we break up, it’s this concept we miss, and what causes the pain is the failure of the same.

The minute we realize this, we can kick our Exes from the pedestal.

These were some of the best inspirational break up quotes I could find; I hope you’ve enjoyed them.

They teach us about detachment, the necessity to forgive and let go, to live life to the fullest with all its dark sides, acceptance, neuro-linguistic programming, mental control and the existence of false pictures.

All virtues for overcoming a break up, and or that arduous task, I wish you all the best.

    its been a hard journey for me, because I’ve been with my boyfriend for 2 and a half years, I found out the other day that had been lying to me about several things, and for me, that broke me down, because it took years for me to trust, especially when he cheated on his ex’s… twice. so Im stuck, but I do want to end things, because I wouldn’t wannabe with someone who’s a liar.

    • Kwynn May 9, 2013 at 11:28 pm #

      I’ve been with my boyfriend for 5 years. He was my first boyfriend too. I found out that he lied a lot and I don’t need someone in my life who doesn’t know what they have. I’ve finally let myself realize that he doesn’t deserve me and my life will strive without him. You will be ok. Do what’s best for you, it’s always the right choice.

    I stayed with him even after he told me he has a girlfriend. Only heard the part that their relationship is not working very well. He broke up with me in a text message but I forgave everything and let him string me along. Now after 2 years he told me he is getting married in 2 months. this after last week we went out.how can I stop loving this cruel person?

    Don’t say that yaar, there are so many people facing the same problem like you. I had a boyfriend when I was in school I used to make him feel good all the time, it was a one side love I proposed him and he accepted but suddenly one day he said plz give me my personal space, you are so cheap and I can’t talk to you on phone all the day and he left me.. After 1yr One guy proposed me and he was very serious about me, but I didn’t accept his proposal for 2 an a half yr. But after that I realised that he truly loves me. I accepted and tried to love him as he used to, and now it been 6 yrs and we were engaged. From last 4 months he was avoiding as he had changed his office and got so many proposals and suddenly started avoiding me. He did not met me on my bday, he went out with his friends on new year. I sent him gifts to his home this valentines (6 days ago). It was the day he called me up and said can’t you understand I’m avoiding, stop showing that you love me, I don’t wanna be with you any more, and don’t keep any hope from me… I REALLY DON’T KNOW WHT TO SAY… But it’s the first time we have not speak to each other from 6 days… He broked up with me and if my mother got to know about all this she is gonna kill me coz I have fought a lot for him with my parents… Still don’t know what’s gonna happen next… I’m waiting for him to come back, I’ll wait till his b-day if he didn’t come i’ll run away from my home as I dnt have guts to face anyone…

    • sorrows February 20, 2012 at 10:13 am #

      Thanks for your support. Are you sure the guy who proposed you loved you as truly as you did ? Sometimes guys do show artificial love in order to win trust. How can he call off a relation after 6 years? He must have a strong and valid reason with explanation. Is he seeing someone else, do you have a doubt ? Sometimes I wonder how come people dump their partners so easily who love them more than anything else. Did you talk to him face to face, what was his reply ? I’ll be glad if I can do anything to patch up you two. You can reply me on this board or else you may email me at yash.back@yahoo.in

      Are you crazy girl dont think like that okey it’s okey if you fought with your parents for him but don’t forget he was just a stranger but your parents are not may be they don’t show how much they love you but it doesn’t mean that they don’t love you. And if you are going though tough times so share it with them you will feel very light and may b in the beginning they say something bad but after a few days they will accept it and you as well you are their daughter their own blood they will support you no matter how many wrong decisions you took trust me don’t do any stupid thing just go and hug you mom tightly and tell each and every thing and don’t think about that guy bcoz if he forgive you after getting someone better so its good for you that you are not married to him else that would be the worst thing right.always be possitive and don’t take stupid decisions so early take time think about it and be sure every thing will gonna me okey tc

    have u thought of strict NC? you seems to be getting a lot of pain from him appearing and disappearing. u need to accept is over and stop this vicious cycle before it eats too much into u. it is difficult to accept that he moved on but u must try and nc helps.

    dun bother asking questions it will just make things worse for u. the best answer requires no questions.

    u are responsible for your happiness, before u met him u are alive right? is all in the mind.

  6. Lovee April 28, 2012 at 2:47 pm #

    ok, so what you have to do is you cant go back with him, if he broke your heart he does not deserve you, you deserve a better person, dont feel like your life is over without him because its not, you will eventually find someone else. And if he wants you back dont fall for it, i made the same mistake and i am not proud of it. Just stand on your feet because you know you’re a bigger person than him. Find yourself and know who you really are. And always think of this: ” dont cry cause its over, smile cause it happened”.

    okay so i really need help, because i have no idea what to do. So this is my story, my boyfriend broke up with me 26 days ago. We were daiting for a month and we were doing really well, and then he found out about some mistakes i did before i even liked him, because my friend told him and he got all pissed. And he said that i should tell him these things because otherwise he cant trust me. And i told him, i didnt want to tell him, because he was involved in it, and because i forgot about it. He didnt believe me and we started fighting. Then i couldnt sleep, eat, drink, and couldnt stop crying being afraid he would end up with another girl. Then like 3 weeks later he comes up to me and says that he never stopped being inlove with me. And then we started flirting a lot and all. And all of the sudden he says: ” i just want to be friends without saying we love each other”. and he just broke my heart again. What do i do?

      Girl, you have to realize that you are too good for someone to treat you like that.  You want a boyfriend who will never leave you, not one that has broken your heart…twice.  Get out there! There are tons of fish in the sea and guys waiting to treat you like a princess.  It may be hard at first but if you are smart and look for the right qualities, you will be even happier than you could have ever imagined with your ex-boyfriend.  Have standards for yourself and even though you may be in love, if he isn’t going to treat you right, you HAVE to move on because you will just get more hurt in the end.  Don’t settle for friends, settle for prince charming!!

    I need help myself. Me and my boyfriend dated for 10 days. I thought he really liked me, but all my friends were telling me to break up with him before he broke up with me. I asked why several times they said because he was calling me a bitch behind my back. Me and him some people said we looked cute, and others told me to break up with him. My best friend messaged me on fb saying she was hanging with him. I was like alright did he say anything about me? 2 hours later she says no. i was like OK…… But then i saw him flirting with her, He broke up with me over text message because i said i love you to my guy friend. My bf said ” Don’t hold my hand pissed you flirt with other guys not trying to be mean but can we be friends” i was like WTF. turns out he got mad at me for saying i love you. i talked to him the next day and he said that he would never flirt with her, shes like his sister. I started to cry and told him the truth about what he was thinking. He FORCED me to give him a hug and said its okay im not mad. and my ex and my ex best friend are now dating. I am so upset and i deleted everything off my fone that reminded me of him and nothing is working. I can not get him out of my head. :*(

    well here’s my situation, i worked with this boy that i met 3 years ago, i was kind of attracted to him, he was cute, but he had a girlfriend, and a kid on the way, well, i didn’t really put anything to it, because i’m not the type of girl to get into something like that, well anyway, for the longest time after they broke up, he would get my number, an text me tell me how amazing and pretty he thought i was , and how he would love to have someone like me, and that he wanted to hang out, me just getting out of a really bad relationship, always made up some stupid excuse not to, well, back in february, i deceided to hangout with him, i brought my best friend with me, because i didn’t want something to happen that i didn’t want to… we sat in his living room, and watched a movie, and as the night went on i started really really liking him more and more, he was so nice, and kind, and he started cuddling with me, than finally he kissed me.. and i got the biggeset butterflies i have ever gotten in my life, like that it was something that i have been waiting for for 22 years, well, we said that night that we were gonna give a relationship ago, but then the next day, he told me he just wanted to be friends, and take things slow, becasue every time he rushed things, they didn’t last, so over the course of a few months up till now, we started hanging out, trying to get to know each other, we did have sex, and we acted like we were together pretty much, and i did SOOO much for him, i bought him shoes, put him on my phone line took him out, bought him stuff, we went to concerts, and i even helped him stay out of jail for fines, there would be days that he would call me his girl, things would be great, and he kept telling me that he liked me he just wanted to enjoy his summer and e verything else. sometimes i would blow up his phone and he would ignore me, but the next day everything would be fine. well, one night, he got drunk, (it was a reoccurring thing) (him drinking) and he told me his facebook password… and i didn’t really think anything of it, till i checked the text logs on our phone one day just to see how many txts we’ve sent, and he started texting this number from 12am-5 in the morning,b ut wouldn’t answer me, so i looked up the number and it was ag irl, so i was curious, and i logged onto his facebook, and read that he has been talking to all these other girls, saying al lthe stuff that he’s been saying to me, and actually talking about me. saying horrible things about me.. and the sad thing is is that i confronted him about it (by making up a little white lie) and he lied right to my face.. well, the other night, i picked him and his friend up and we went to the the bar for some drinks, and then drove back into town (i was the DD) and i dropped him off at his dads house he told me to go pick up his sisster cuz’ she needed a ride to wal-mart, and so i was nice enough to take her, well he told me to come back when i was done, so itried getting a hold of him, and he wouldn’t answer his phone, he didn’t text me nothing, he just straight up ignored me, so i went back to his sisters and hung out with her for awhile, the next two days, he wouldn’t talk to me, he didn’t text me didn’t answer my call, i had no idea where he was, or anything, but he finally texted his sister, and told her that he wasn’t talking to me anymore, and i was talking to his stepmom, and his brother and they said that he didn’t want anything to do with me anymore and he didn’t care if i shut off his phone, and i started freaking out, i felt my entire heart and world crumble (i’ve fallen in love with this kid) and so itexted him probably about no joke 40 times, and i finally got a text from him saying “i dont know what yourtelling people or what they’re telling you but i’m just chillin i’m done with the drama im’ about done with everything” and then we were chill for a little bit, than the next day i wanted to talk… i asked him if we could, he thought i meant in person and i was like would be nice, and he said no.. cause he didn’t want to see me, so he said we could text. so i tried talking about everything, and he said that he didn’t really see us going anywhere, but then we talked a little bit and we decided to start over and try again cause we didn’t really get to knoweach other or do what we planned because we just jumped the gun on everything, well after that was in a better mood, than i try talking to him, and he tells me not to call him hun or babe anymore, cuz’ im not his hun and he’s not my babe, and he started being a dick to me again, and then ignored me yet again for the rest of the night, so i logged into his facebook and he was talking to more girls… this guy drinks from 6am-6am has two kids he doesn’t see, no job. and he’s done this to eveery girl he’s been with yet, i keep trying to get him to talk to me, keep trying to keephim close, i just want to be with him :( (

    it hurts when i fall in love with someone who’s already taken.already tied.she made me believe that she loves me in when things fall down on me…

    y boyfriend of 6 onths broke up with e a few weeks ago, I know this isn’t a long time, But he was my first everything. First love, first EVERYTHING. I trusted him. Although he never cheated on me…he lied. He lied about alot of things and I just let it go and never questioned anything. Like for instance, he lives 5 blocks away from me but he would hang out with all his friends and only see me once a week…When we broke up I took it pretty bad…because again he was my first everything. He smoked alot to…sometimes I felt like he would choose that over me. I don’t smoke, I get good grades. I’m a good girl. He was the typical bad boy, so well when he broke up with me he said “I still love you but I have stuff in my life that I need to take care of ” 3 weeks later…he has a new girlfriend. I wasn’t mad when we originally broke up, I’m mad NOW because he lied. about loving me. That’s what hurts..I think I’m the kind of person..that doesn’t deserve to be lied to..

    Two year ago at the start of January, I began dating my ex-boyfriends best friend…and he was okay with that. Anyway we dated for about 3 months then he broke up with me 3 days before my birthday, I was so distraught, I started pushing him, then I was completely holding on to him…I ran off and cut myself…for the very first time. He then asked me back out two days after my birthday…stupid me I said yes…that last till about June….then my best friend has plotted to steal him away from me…she had been speaking to him and telling him that she would “do things with him”, because I wouldn’t because I’m a strong Catholic girl. I asked her if she liked him and she said “No never” and I asked him and he said “Noooo”…but then the next day he broke up with me. I pretended to be okay..but I was so mad…when I got home, I logged onto MSN….and my EX-bestfriends name read “Jess – I love you so much Jords”, I snapped! I was so pissed!!! HOW CAN SHE LOVE HIM??? THE OTHER DAY SHE WANTED NOTHING TO DO WITH HIM…I was so frustrated…Anyway I pretended I was fine..but because they were both in my group..it was so hard to watch them….Then Jess broke up with him, and so I started talking to him because he was really upset. She blamed me for the break up! Because I’d told her if she didn’t like him to break up with him -.- She started dating Kaine who she said she really liked…Jordan was mad..Kaine and him fought..but then she broke it off with Kaine and claimed she never liked him..when she told me otherwise…so Jordan and her got together again….I was so annoyed….But they did end up breaking up…anywho…later down the track I started dating a guy in September and it was a week before school holidays, and the first week of holidays he was in Melbourne…I went to my best guy mates house, and Jordan had been invited to…We were all mucking around and Jordan and I covered my best mate in pillows and sheets…and then just so happened…we kissed…I was surprised and confused as to why and how it happened…I broke up with my boyfriend..not telling him the real reason…Anyway me and Jordan went out a bit later..for 2 months or so..and I broke up with him..and he was now the distraught one..but at the start of 2011..it began…again….but he was leading me on. I don’t know why but I feel as if even after year I’m still not able to say “I’m over him”, without feeling like I’m lying…Because of him I don’t trust people and so hard for me to be in a relationship..like the past year I have been in a couple..but they have ended in disaster… I’m kind of friends with him…but I feel as if we were never finished..even though he tore my heart out…and is the reason I have cut myself for the past 2 years….

    Reading a lot of these comments made me teary eyed cause i’m in this situation right now.

  14. Knight August 1, 2012 at 7:33 pm #

    I dont know whats wrong with God. I have faced the same issue, well a lot of issues with 2 girls, first one, i dated for 5 yrs, and then she tells me, she cant be with me coz of religion. Last ditch effort, i even offered to convert, but no budging. I got close to another girl after that, and i later found she was “humping” another guy in one of her texts. She would always find time for herself and her friends but me. I finally gave it up.

    Im still very hurt, and avoid the places she frequents. Well those were the places I used to frequent too. I seriously do not know why God creates such mismatches. Well M still getting over it and I know, by reading over 200 of such posts, m not alone in my pain. I wonder though how the ppl who posted before me, long before me, are doing.
    I hope all of u found someone better, coz i hope i do aswell. I know i have so much love inside me, and im scared someday il die without giving it to someone. I know im jealous, possesive etc, but i loved her. Well, If anyone would like to talk about their issues, u can email me at t_sak2001@hotmail.com, or add me on yahoo at t_sak2001@yahoo.com

    Hello Friends

    I’m 22 years old.I’m from Turkey.I’m gonna try to
    tell my story since I was an Erasmus Student in Greece…I dont know
    what to do…I wish you to help me…Thanks..

    I was an Erasmus
    Student in Greece this year.and I had a greek girlfriend(23 years old)
    for 11 months( all my erasmus period ).and We lived together at the same
    house for 9 months.We really had a good relationship for first
    months..but after some months,she started having fear about my
    religion,culture,people and nation as a normal greek person…Because
    they learn too many bad things about us.But the fact is not like
    that…And we started arguing about these things.even if I know the fact
    about us,I was patient.Because she was judging me unconsciously..I was
    saying that she would see when we were gonna go to Istanbul.and the time
    had come.and we went to Istanbul.She saw the people,religion etc.And
    she told me that I was right.and these arguments were closed till I left
    to Greece.Because my erasmus period was finished.and we had to be apart
    for some months.after some months,she was planning to come to see
    me..it was on August.and then the time came.because of her dad,she had
    to change her mind.Her dad didnt let her go.Because she needed to study
    for her exams on end of the August.I was dissapointed and sad.Because
    she gave me hopes that she could come.and then she broke my heart.But
    even if she didnt come,after some hours I understood.The fact was like
    that.so we decided to arrange it after exams..and the time came.she
    wrote me from facebook that she had a problem.I asked what the problem
    is again.she told me ” I talked with my friends.And they told me that
    if I could come and my parents could learn,they would cut my money at
    the university and maybe I wont see you more than a year.Because they’re
    gonna take me home…”after I read that,I was too dissapointed and sad
    again…and it was twice…I didn’t want to talk with her for
    awhile.but after some hours,I understood that the fact was like that.But
    I expected her to take my heart back.Because she gave too many hopes to
    me and then she didn’t keep it…the only thing she said ” the fact is
    like that.I cannot do anything.I know you’re too sad,dissapointed and
    broken.I’m the same too.”…for some days we passed like that.she
    didn’t take my heart back,even she didn’t write me a lot.She only left
    me alone with my broken hopes…Anyway I wrote her ” why don’t you take
    my heart back?because you gave too many hopes and you broke them.why do
    u want to make this conversation longer?Just say something good like
    that we will find a solution to see or I can come to Greece.Nothing she
    said..after some hours,I wrote ” just to know we will break up” by
    being angry…Because she didn’t take any effort to take my heart.it was
    too easy.and she answered ” are you kidding?do you want to break up
    for that??don’t change your mind,because I wont…” she wrote…the
    argument really became a big problem now.we were fighting for
    nation,religion,people before.and I was patient and I fixed it.after we
    were apart for 2 months,we started fighting for going out and
    jealousy…I wanted her to go out and have a good time with friends.but I
    wanted her to come home till 2-3 am.I didn’t want her to be too
    late.Because after that time,there is noone as good…everyone tries to
    find someone to do something.This is why I wanted her to put some limits
    for going out etc.But we argued again.Because she came home after 4.30
    or 5.00 all the time.I know my jealousy was a little much.But it was
    because of too much love…even if I was patient of her all the
    time,she wasnt patient or understanding for these limits…anyway after
    this argument she became full..and we broke up as a word.The same
    night,I went out directly and I bought a bus ticket to go to Istanbul
    from my university ( 6 hours ),and for tomorrow morning,I bought a
    flight ticket for Athens.I wanted to make a suprising and to say
    sorry.Normally I wasn’t too wrong.Maybe because of being angry and sad,I
    said bullshits.But it was because of that she didn’t keep her
    promises.when I was in Istanbul,I met a man who is 46 years old and
    greek.he shew my bag which is written University of Patras.and he
    wanted to ask me that I’m from there or not.Because he was going
    there.and Patras was his hometown.we did all the trip together till
    patras.and we talked about my girlfriend.he couldn’t believe in me that I
    came to greece at the same day just to say sorry even if I wasn’t too
    wrong.But I said that it’s a Love…Anyway I came to her friend’s
    home.Because I knew that she was there.she was feeling too bad.when I
    came home and gave the flowers to her,she didn’t react anything.I talked
    too much to take her heart back and forgive me even if I didn’t do
    something big.but she didnt want to continue.she wanted to follow her
    mind.Because she thinks that we wont be happy and we will fight all the
    time…even if the point was to think of arguments and ask yourself that
    why we argue,-because of me or her-,I tried to put myself down.But
    nothing was changed.and I said ” do you want me to go?” she said ”
    sorry but I cannot.Thanks for coming here for me..”after that
    answered,I kissed her once and left home…I was too bad..Because it was
    too hard to leave her here and go…I was alone in the city without my
    girlfriend…the only thing that I was lucky is to meet this man who is
    46 years old and greek.I went his home to stay for night.Because Im
    gonna leave in some days.and he couldn’t believe in that she kicked me
    out…normally she would hug you so strongly…but nothing…we went for
    a drink.and he wanted to talk with my girlfriend.but she didn’t want to
    come to cafe to talk…after that,we understood t hat our relationship
    was totally finished…The time came to leave your girlfriend here and
    go back to my country from the bus station…you cannot imagine how hard
    it was…I was stopping myself to go to my girlfriend and to beg…but
    nothing would be changed.so I had to give up anymore…I did more than
    my best for her.The only thing I dont understand is that what the big
    problem we had…to go out till 2-3 am ? or being jealous??I really dont
    know…I was loved,honest and loyal…I did all my best for her.what
    else does she want from her boyfriend in that age??we’re apart for a
    week…I dont know how heart she has,but I couldn’t forget… the only
    thing which is the hardest in that age is to find a person who is a
    lover,honest and loyal…for me,I believe in that we could fix our
    behaviours and negatives by time,but these 3 things are are so hard to find in that age..It’s easy to find someone you love,but it’s hard to find someone who loves you back …I wish she could understand me…

    Thank you for reading…Sorry it’s complicated a little..

    My boyfriend, father of my 2 boys. Told me that he NO longer wanted to be together. He wants to be alone. Just his work life and the kids. He spent years making others happy and doing what others wanted that it was time that he focused on him and what he wanted. We been together for 4 years and things happened fast. I thought it was just stress of NOT getting sleep and having two kids close together.

    My personal favorite breakup quote is from the wonderful Marilyn Monroe.

    ”If you can’t handle me at my worst you sure as hell don’t deserve me at my best”.

    This quote got me through a terrible breakup. My boyfriend of 3 years ended things with me after my little sister passed away, claiming I was a burden.

  20. just a girl... March 19, 2013 at 5:52 pm #

    Ive been in a 8year relationship. Ive been abused phyiscally, emotionally and sociologically. Its hard. Ive always went back, because it was unconditional love I had. I kept no records of wrongs. I was treated like a dog in many cases. He can hit me or choke me and ill always cpme back. I may be dumb but when u really fall for someone, it makes u blind. U have that perception of him that he can change or this is just a phase but, sweety its not.
    Ive learned when u let go its hard but dont concentrate on the negatives. Dont be sad cause it ended. Be happy it happen….i believe that. Learn to trust urself before others. That way u know what ur strenghts and weaknesses are. How far you can go on ur own. A lady or man shouldnt need someone who doesnt need them. when u stand ur ground and figure out ur wants and needs. U learn, ur a lot stronger than u think u are. U realize while being alone, u start to think about what u want ur next relationship to be like. Everything is a learning process. It makes who who u are and u decide weather to change ur bad habits. Choose someone who betters you, not bitters you. im very beautiful to go threw this kind of things but it happens, to all of us. We choose to deal with it our own way. The way we see fit or been taught, so we are comfortable. But how about get out of ur comfort zone for once and do something that can alter ur perspective on life. That this breakup is one stepping stone to see if i can handle whatever is before me in the future. Its all it is. Gods way of showing us we mastered that breakup or challenge in life. Now on to the next. U can over analyze the small picture or look passed it and see the big picture. That u too can overcome this. 8 years is part of a life time. Something u just dont throw away but I have to in order to move on and take what I learn and use for my advantage. I hope my words arent to harsh, but I hope my opinion can help u see that u deserve better. That we all mess up, but everyone messes up. But there is a point of going to far and letting someone play with ur heart and not take u serious. Cause thats not worth giving ur time too or losing apart of ur precious life for.

    Thank u. Follow me on twitter @idgafxfancyhuh

    aghh im on same boat. I’m 22 & my girlfriend was 20. We were in relationship for 4 years now. She fought so much for me with her parents because they didn’t like me. All of the sudden last month she said I want to break up I want to experience something different. I asked her what I did wrong. And she replied nothing it’s not you it’s me. I cried so much I lost 7 pound in 1 month. I still can’t recover. I lost my Job. I’m graduating in May. I cry day and night wake up middle of night every day and then can’t fall sleep back again. I spend 4 days in hospital in month. All day I keep thinking about her. I have house car Manger at Apple everything in my life. But I just feel so lonely without her. All of her friends stop talking to me as well. I feel like I have nobody left in my life. Any suggestion what I should do. Already go to GYM to fresh up my mind still not helping  . People told me start dating but I’m so nervous now I can’t go up to anyone and ask her.

  22. hurt and left alone April 29, 2013 at 7:39 pm #

    love is so hurtful. About 1 year ago i was madly in love with my recent boyfriend. months passed by and we started getting little problems. He started to become really obsessed and jealous. he accused me of all such for many months and i thought i was to lost it because it was really getting to me. He was the only person i text and call during the day apart from my girlfriends which i barely talk to on the phone. one day i got upset and i sent him a mad text n for hanging up the phone on me.but i didn’t expect him to take serious. but anyway he did. i realize when he didn’t call nor text, I didn’t either because my phone was not working. it went on for a week and i call him the following weekend begging and asking for forgiveness which i am still waiting on . I am broken heart and I am trying to hide my feelings from my family. I think am going to give up.. and i don’t think can keep on begging.. IT seem like am the only one feeling it because he sounds perfectly fine to me. I am so hurt and heart broken.i really love him.. WHY DOES ANYONE HAVE TO FEEL THIS WAY!!!!!!!!!!

      Same it’s been 2 month since we broke up and it looks like it’s only me who’s hurt and I really love her. But she have moved on and got new boyfriend. So far I cry day and night because I loved her so much and now idk what to do. Like I can’t even go up to girl and start conversation. Anyways if you want to talk to someone I’m here for you because I know how it feels. Email me at shivani94pat@aol.com and I’ll send you my phone number maybe we can talk It out.
