My partner and I broke up two days ago due to his relocation to another state. Despite my efforts to find a compromise he felt ending things was the only option. He reassured me of his lasting love and we decided to go no-contact temporarily before transitioning to a friendship.
I'm devastated and deeply heartbroken. He felt like my soulmate and matched everything I’ve ever wanted in a partner making it hard to imagine ever feeling this way about someone else. While I know it might be wishful thinking part of me still holds out hope for a future reunion.

i keep thinking about the friendship part, do you genuinely want to be friends someday, or are you hoping friendship will keep the door open for you two to get back together?
im so sorry!
i’d let the no-contact be no-contact for now. i used to hold onto reunion fantasies so tightly that i couldn’t even grieve what had actually happened, and giving myself time made things feel a little less impossible.
I'm so sorry you're going through that! You're not alone! We're here for you! Mine left 5 nights ago, and I still cry about it. I'm hoping and praying he comes back 🥺
two days after a breakup can feel like your whole future disappeared overnight. i remember clinging to every “i love you” and “maybe someday” because i couldn’t imagine wanting anyone else.
