I 23m broke up with my girlfriend 22f of 7 months 2 days ago. She expected it coming and it became mutual because we agreed we weren’t “compatible” but neither of us wanted to end it.
We both cried and talked for a few hours and ended up breaking up. I said for her to block me on everything and she hasnt. Its been 2 days, i sent her a text the day of saying thank you for everything and she hasnt opened it but im sure shes seen it. I plan on sending her a congratulation text when she graduates tomorrow. I know she’s devastated and i didnt think it would hurt me this bad too but i feel like i made a huge mistake and really lost a good person in my life. I was her best friend and she was mine. I told her just loving each other isnt enough to have a relationship workout but im not sure if i believe that.
She had all these plans for us in the summer and was super excited but she said she might move back home a couple states away sooner (her lease ends late july), now that theres not much for her left here. Shes graduating tomorrow and her whole family will be there. (I met them the week prior). I was invited but i definitely cant and shouldn’t go now even if we get back together.
I definitely need time to fully process everything but i feel like im running out of time as she is making big decisions and i was a deciding factor in those. She wants to move to New York for work after college and i was going to move as well (not to new york). We agreed on long distance if it came to it. Everything about our relationship was amazing. Literally everything, we never had big arguments. Just disagreements that we actually communicated about very thoroughly and understood each other.
I feel like the biggest idiot in the world that threw away what makes life special for bs reasons and im realizing that now. I want to just show up with flowers and apologize and tell her everything. I hurt and betrayed her and i would understand if she wouldn’t take me back.
Any advice is appreciated
