I just need to share this. It’s been a year since I moved into my apartment after our breakup.
I still have dreams about her and the cat we shared. I miss her—miss those calls on my way home, the sound of her coming through the door, her laughter, and her voice.
Some days, it’s unbelievably hard, and I’m at a loss for how to handle it.
I truly loved her, but she broke me when she had a child with someone I never liked. I gave her everything I had. I moved for her, planned my vacations around her for five years, greeted her at the door, bought her gifts, and supported her when she needed it. In doing so, I lost myself. Sometimes, being an empath feels more like a curse.
It’s hard to accept how much I still miss her. I know I need to let go of the past, but there’s so much inner conflict and grief I need to work through.

Your feelings are valid. It's natural to miss someone you loved so deeply. Don't be ashamed of your grief.
I can completely understand how difficult this must be. Losing someone you love, especially under these circumstances, is incredibly painful. Remember, it's okay to grieve and take your time healing.
Anyone else get like flashes of things that remind you about your ex and like memories coming back?
Yes really often. And everywhere. Sometimes i smell his perfume just randomly on the street and everything replays in my head.
@HateU Yes it is really stressful when it happens, I can catch myself in the middle of a phone call where I say something like she used to, and I get all these flashbacks ans stuff. Today it became a little too much, I broke down and cried about it, but it feels better now at least.
