My ex and I share the same class. She broke up with me half a year ago and I forced to see her every day doing things that are heartbreaking for me. Man it hurts so much. Especially because my feelings are still there.
Go forward even if you don't know why, brother. One day life will become better, maybe not for me, but definitely for you.

Hurts especially when you can’t get her out of your mind cause she was so good

Hello bakers! Heres an explanation.

The aftermath of a breakup can vary greatly depending on the individual and the circumstances of the relationship. However, it's not uncommon for some men to find the first few months of a breakup relatively easy to handle. Initially, there might be a sense of relief or freedom from the constraints of a relationship. Men may focus on rebuilding their lives, reconnecting with friends, or pursuing personal goals they may have put on hold during the relationship.

However, encountering the person they broke up with in public can trigger a surge of emotions and reignite feelings of pain and sadness. Seeing the person in a social setting can serve as a painful reminder of the past, bringing back memories of shared experiences, intimacy, and the emotional connection that was lost. It's human nature to feel a sense of longing or nostalgia when faced with someone who was once an important part of our lives.

Additionally, seeing an ex-partner in public can also lead to feelings of insecurity or inadequacy. Men may compare themselves to their former partner's new circumstances or relationships, questioning their own self-worth or desirability. This can be particularly challenging if the breakup was initiated by the other person, as it may intensify feelings of rejection or abandonment.

Furthermore, the absence of closure or unresolved issues from the relationship can contribute to the pain experienced when encountering an ex in public. Seeing them may trigger a desire to seek answers, closure, or resolution, which can be emotionally overwhelming. It's natural for these encounters to bring up a mix of emotions, and the intensity of those feelings can catch men off guard, making it harder to cope with the aftermath of the breakup.

Ultimately, while the first few months of a breakup may seem relatively manageable for some men, seeing the person they broke up with in public can evoke a range of emotions and make the healing process more challenging. It's important for individuals to be patient with themselves, seek support from friends or professionals if needed, and focus on their own personal growth and well-being as they navigate the complexities of moving on.

The “wake up to reality” speech is what really helped me go through it

"Only know you've been high when you're feeling low.
Only hate the road when you're missing home.
Only know you love her when you let her go."

It hits different when you have to see them everyday in school

[LKUST]

I feel this, which is really weird since I’m the one who broke up with her. I don’t understand what I feel. It’s been about four months and I can’t tell if I’m feeling guilt or regret.

[dylan_memphis]

It's always the music that brings back memories of he/she too. Don't u ever just feel insecure or hopeless whenever u seen an ex in public (school, work, supermarket) etc?

Seeing them in your dream, hanging out, then waking up

[JCDenton-area]

I’m glad that feeling is years behind me and now I’m just alone with my best friend depression.

[chasefluck]

My girlfriend broke up with me because I cried to her about my grandmom dying. That day was the day we were dating for four months exactly too. I gotten so depressed since then and I can’t talk to anybody
