Why my heart was shattered after a decade of faithfulness

Author

For nearly a decade, i was nothing but faithful to her. Did my best to make her happy until she broke up with me through Messenger telling me she felt the relationship was stagnant and she was not happy anymore. Asked her if she's leaving me for someone else. That's the time she confessed that she's been getting attracted to her colleague, which i knew but never confronted her about it because i trusted her. My heart was shattered into pieces.

Confused, angry, all emotions at once but at the end of the day i can't fully hate her. If only there was a shortcut to healing.

Now I'm starting over at 27, lost, broke but with hope and an opportunity to start fresh.

do you feel like you’ve really let go of her, or are you still holding onto the version of her you thought you had?

i dont think i have fully let go of her but im working on it. we still have things to talk about i think before she finally move back to Japan. until then i probably will keep going spiral with my emotions but i definitely have control over it now compared to past few weeks.

i know you want a shortcut, i did too, but what helped me was cutting off every little thread that kept me tied to himm. the less i checked, the less i replayed it, the quieter it got.

well i already deleted our photos together on my phone. and i started no contact including checking her socials etc. so i think this is the start

man… this hurt to read. i gave months to someone too and found out she were already leaning toward someone else before ending it, that kind of betrayal sticks in your chest

it does stick in chest. but it's their choice not ours. we cant do anything about it now but to accept and keep moving forward because it's the only way
