If you need to vent you can dm me. I find hearing other peoples stories helps me feel less alone with my situations so I'm all ears

So it’s been quite a while since my breakup and I haven’t tried to speak to my ex in nearly six months. A few months ago he blocked me for about a month and the randomly unblocked me and made his profile public on insta. I’ve been strong for the past two months but I finally got tempted and checked the posts he’s tagged in. Horrbile idea. Now my heart is racing and I’m finding myself a bit angry as I see him seeming pretty close to the girl he called me crazy for being worried abt. I really want to break no contact out of anger but I know I shouldn’t. the worst part is I see him around our college sometimes and he’s been really strange everytime

It has been nearly half a year since my breakup with my first ever boyfriend. We were together for a year and a half yet he seemed to find it very easy completely ghosting me after abruptly breaking up with me. My biggest issue right now is I still have not truly moved on. We go to the same college so I see him occasionally but pretend I don't. I know I need to start getting rid of things from him but it feels impossible. Just no I tried to unfriend him on Facebook, an app neither of us even use, and I started to tear up and couldn't bring myself to. I know I just need to delete the old messages and pictures and throw away the old letters he wrote me but I truly don't feel like I can. Idk any advice on how to make this all easier? I'm a very sentimental person and I don't think I'm ready to let it go because I know deep down I wish we were still together and this is my way of holding on. How do I stop ruminating and keeping this pain alive
