When you break up because the relationship just isn't working but your life seems incomplete with out the other person?

Until I find someone else, I rely on my fiends & doing things that I enjoy

What Pats said, I also keep my childhood imaginary friends around.

Is it that person inparticular? or just the being in a relationship?

Um, freak out because I'm not a whole person?

Seriously.... you must be a whole person before you can be healthy. You must fill the gaps in your ilfe.

It's him. I've never been so torn up about a guy before. I actually enjoy being single but with out him I feel like a piece of me is gone.

It all takes time.Love is not enough,if it was then i would still be with my last boyfriend.But u can try and try and it still won't work no matter what.Its not the way it was,or could be its just the way it is. just take one day at a time.

No, you just miss his presence, things you did and said, Fill those gaps up, it will suck for a good long while though.
Not gonna lie.

Hqve you thought about jumping straight into the dating pool again?

Might take your mind off things maybe.

Others might tell you thats bad advice. I cant say that i have been in that position before, so i dont really know.

I have plenty to fill my life with but I can't even seem to be happy around my friends and family. The piece thats missing now, was never there before him. He filled a spot in my heart that I didn't know existed. Now that we're not together the void seems to over power everything else.

This is going to sound harsh....but you need to hear it.

Buck up. You broke up for a reason. If he completed you, well, you'd still be together. Happiness is a choice.

We all go through that. Focus more on yourself for now. The feeling eventually fades. Part of the problem is being disillusioned from a heart break. My last break up was not as bad as it could have gotten. We are still friends. That is a fluke though. More often than not when I had relationships go bad they really go bad. Better to put as much distance metaphorically speaking between the two of you as you can. If you go back you are just asking form ore heartbreak.

All the pain you are going through now means you still have a heart left...

Don't let it rule you. That which does not kill you makes you stronger!

He and I are still friends, I think it's actually making it harder.

you run away with me !

OK, new question-

How do I stop throwing this pity party for myself on a daily basis?

I really think I am torturing myself for something, like I should have stuck with him and waited it out?

Where oh where has the old Myka gone? The new one is emotionally challenged

Why did you two break up?

Honestly we are great as friends but I felt as far as our relationship went I was putting in a lot more effort than he was. Even after confronting him about it things didn't change. Maybe because he just wasn't capable of more.

That's pretty nonresponsive.... and you are making excuses for him too.

Why did you break up?

That's been my experience. Being friends will likely extend the recovery and the pain, evey though you do get small periods of relief.

Sorry that wasn't enough info for you, but I am really not willing to share any further details here. He IS a good guy regardless of how I feel now. I was the one who did the breaking up, so this isn't his fault. I guess it would just be easier for me if I could be mad at him for something but I seem to beating myself up instead.
