Why can't i stop dreaming about him after a week?

it’s literally been a week and Ive been at my besties house all week going out shopping and everything and i still feel heavy hearted. I’ve had a dream about him for the past 7 days and I can’t get him out of my head and heart. it genuinely hurts sm. i leave back home on Saturday and I’m even more scared to be by myself at nights and during the day, I know it’s goimg to hurt even more.

definitely have a schedule it helped me to find where I had long voids of time that I always used to torture myself about missing him I had 2 months of no contact and right when I was feeling better he hit me up and I had to start the whole process over but im doing things different now I cut off all ties I blocked him on everything started the gym anything to fill my time

when i had to go back home after staying with friends, i planned one tiny thing for every evening because the silence hit me hard, and it made those first nights feel a little less endless.

i know exactly how you feel! My first week i went on vacation with my family, cried the whole week and was sooo scared to go home and being on my own in my empty apartment without him. but you will make it! for me long walks helps, it makes me come back to ”reality”… sending hugs!

the first week was the WORST for me too, i could stay busy all day and then i'd dream about them every single night. i really thought it would never stop

what is it about going back home that scares you the most, is it the memories there or just being alone with your thoughts?

being alone for the first time after a breakup can be jarring. maybe try to pick up a new hobby - use a moment that hurts as a trigger to learn something new that you’ll enjoy
