Why am i so upset after going no contact?

Author

yesterday I had officially initiated no contact, I wanted to do it in person because I felt wrong doing it over the phone. I was trying to plan a time for us to meet up when she just simply told me could you just tell me over the phone. I just felt really heavy. so instead of holding this thing off that I have for a long time I just decided to do it anyway. I wanted to meet up with her again so we can maybe see each other before we went no contact and I didn't want to end everything on a phone call after the 6 year friendship and relationship we had. I was telling her all of the kind of issues I've had in our relationship, how she became distant, how I felt like I was doing most of the work, how avoidantly attached she is. I can tell on the other line she was crying I felt horrible. the last time she was at my house I had an emotional breakdown and she swore she would never leave me and she would always be there for me. but when we are apart you're really apart. I wanted to end this at least for now on my terms, but just ending it over the phone made it all just worse. am I right to feel this way?

i’d be upset too. after six years, wanting one last face-to-face conversation feels completely understandable, especially when you’d already pictured how you wanted that goodbye to happen.

i’ve had a breakup where the ending felt wrong because it happened in a way i never wanted.

you think what hurts most is that she chose the phone call, or that it made those six years feel easier to walk away from than you expected?

This is how exactly I felt when this happened he chose to end things over phone I asked him if he can meet briefly to talk things out he never gives a straight no just said we need to calm down wait for a while before we that I agreed and he can never came back when I tried to reach out for other reasons he blocked me
they are just so desperate to get rid that’s all to the story I am sorry you are hurting like me but I realized the one more who truly loves suffer there’s no other way out
