Break-up help

[bonesbru]

So, I recently went through a pretty rough break-up with my fiancé, we were together for around 5 years. I’m taking it really really bad and struggling. I was wondering if any of you guys have gone through one in a similar fashion, where it was this hard. I’ve gone through a bunch in the past but none that feel like this. For anyone wondering, if it isn’t obvious, i was the one dumped.

Hoping this thread will help me and anyone else in a similar situation

What are some things that helped you guys besides the obvious gym focus?

This is a sucky reply that you wont want to hear...but time. Time will heal the wounds

More generic advice is just to focus on other things. Distract yourself. Gym harder, throw yourself into your work, reconnect with friends and loved ones. One day you'll realise it's lunch time and you haven't thought of her that day yet. Then you'll go a day without it. Then, soon enough, you'll realise you think of someone else when you see a funny meme you want to send to someone etc.

It sucks, and it's not what you want to hear, but one day you just won't miss her as much and then you'll be well along the path of healing

DMs are open if you'd like to talk or vent. I've been through a brutal one twice and it sucked more than I can articulate. Hope you're doing well, brother. Stay safe

You’re right - there really is no substitute for time

Don’t question shit and move on. It didn’t work and at this point it really doesn’t matter who it was or why. It wasn’t the right situation for someone and so be it. All you can do is move forward and focus on self improvement in the process. So many guys wanna self sabotage when this stuff happens and it just makes you weaker and less appealing to other chicks. And not to sound shallow here, but whenever I would go bang a new chick I didn’t give a rats ass abt my previous relationship

Great advice.
