I think we both genuinely tried, but in the end, we just weren’t compatible. It got to a point where the relationship was hurting me almost every day, so we finally decided to end things.
Now I’m back to feeling lonely again. I stay busy during the day, but somehow I still find time to overthink everything. It feels like no matter how hard I try to make things work with someone, it always falls apart—even when I’m willing to push through issues.
I’m struggling to accept that love isn’t everything. How do I stop my brain from constantly replaying the past and holding onto that connection? I’m 29, and honestly, I’m scared I’ll never find the love of my life.
Right now, I also don’t know what I’m supposed to do after a breakup. We didn’t block each other, and part of me keeps hoping she’ll text me saying she’s sorry or that she wants to try again. But we’ve already broken up and gotten back together more than 10 times, and it still never worked.
So now I’m just trying to figure out how to make this hurt less. What should I actually be doing after a breakup? Any advice would really help.
