Why does he give her everything i wanted?

Author

it breaks my heart watching him give her everything i begged for when we were together. he's taking her on dates vacations buying her flowers doing all the little things i used to ask for the things he never seemed willing to do for me.
with me there were excuses broken promises lies and feeling like i was only there until someone better came along. then he found her disappeared from my life stopped responding removed me from everything and erased me like i never mattered.
what hurts even more is seeing everyone celebrate their relationship without knowing how much pain he left behind. i keep asking myself why i wasn't worth the same kindness the same effort the same love. all i ever wanted was to care for him support him and be there for him. i never tried to hurt him yet somehow i'm the one left carrying all this pain.
i'm trying my best to move forward but some days it's hard not to feel like i wasn't enough. hard not to compare myself. hard not to wonder why she gets the version of him that i spent so long hoping for.
i know i didn't deserve the way he treated me. i just wish i understood why someone i loved so deeply could hurt me so easily.

when you look back at the relationship, were there moments where you felt unseen even before he left? sometimes the pain isn't just losing them, it's finally having to face how lonely we already were.

watched my ex do all the things for someone new that i spent years asking for, and it made me question EVERYTHING about myself. that comparison trap is brutal

I’m so sorry you’re going through this… I know that pain, and watching them able to do it all for someone else makes the heartache somehow even deeper. It almost feels like a mystery you can’t solve,…I find myself wondering if I ever even knew him at all, or just what he wanted me to see.
