Why did our long-distance love fall apart?

Author

we were together for four months in a long-distance relationship. We spent almost every day on calls together talking about everything and nothing.
I've always been a pretty shy and socially anxious person but with her I felt completely comfortable. She got to see the goofy affectionate side of me that I usually keep hidden from everyone else. Honestly she knew things about me that even my own family doesn't know.
Now it's over and I'm struggling to make sense of it. It feels like such a huge part of my life disappeared overnight. We had plans to finally meet in person and having that to look forward to gave me motivation and purpose. It felt like I was working toward something meaningful.
Now all of that is gone and I feel completely lost. I'm trying to figure out who I am and what comes next without the person who had become such a big part of my everyday life.

it prob felt safe as LTR so that is why you’re so attached

my relationship was long distance too, and what broke me wasn't just losing her, it was losing the person i told every random thought to throughout the day. the silence after that felt so damn loud

do you miss having that daily connection and future to look forward to? those felt really different for me once the shock settled.

Those long distance relationships where you're constantly connected hit so different - when that daily routine just vanishes it leaves this massive void that nothing else fills
