I never thought I’d be posting here, but I don’t know where else to go. I’m 19 and just went through my first "real" breakup. We were together for over a year, and honestly, I thought we were going to be that couple that actually made it.

The hardest part isn’t even the big arguments it’s the little things. It’s waking up and realizing I don’t have a "good morning" text waiting for me, or seeing something funny and reflexively opening my phone to tell him, only to remember I can't.

Everyone says "you’re young, you’ll find someone else," but that feels so dismissive right now. It doesn't make the pit in my stomach go away or make the house feel any less quiet.

How do you guys deal with the silence? Does the urge to check their social media ever actually go away? I’m trying to stay busy, but some days it just feels like I’m moving through a fog.

I’d love to hear from anyone else who's going through this or anyone who has made it to the other side. I could really use some hope today.

When I think about my ex, I don’t really miss the fights or the stressful parts of the relationship. What I miss is the comfort of knowing there was always someone I could talk to.

I miss sending random updates throughout the day. I miss having someone who cared about the little things, like what I ate, how work went, or why I was feeling off. I miss the routine of saying good morning and good night.

It’s strange because I know the relationship had problems, and I understand why it ended. But that doesn’t stop me from missing the feeling of being close to someone who felt like home.

I think that’s the hardest part of moving on. Not losing the relationship itself, but losing the sense of comfort and connection that came with it.

I'm simply having a good time tonight. I'm feeling really open-minded, flirtatious, and willing to chat nasty if the mood is perfect. I'm willing to talk to anyone, so don't be afraid to click the arrow or leave a remark. Let's talk

I have a bit of free time today and realized it has been a while since I had a really good chat with someone new. I am feeling pretty easygoing and just want to see who is out there. I usually get along best with people who are a bit more settled and relaxed in how they talk. If you are having a quiet day too and want to keep each other company for a bit, feel free to reach out. I am open to talking about pretty much anything as long as we keep it friendly.

Ive been feeling extra chatty lately and I realized how much better my days get when I have people to text random thoughts to. We could talk about anything like what music is stuck in our heads, hilarious fails from the week, dream vacations, or even what we had for lunch. I love when conversations bounce around naturally and keep us both smiling.

Im really open minded and always curious about how other people see the world. Getting to know someone new through steady little messages is one of my favorite things. If youre someone who enjoys lighthearted, consistent chats that feel easy and fun, Id be so excited to hear from you.

Lets make texting each other the highlight of our days.
