I just need to get this out. It’s been a year since I moved into my apartment after the breakup.
I still have dreams about her and our cat. I miss her, the calls she’d make on her way home, the sound of her coming through the door, her laughter, and her voice.
Sometimes, it’s unbearably tough, and I feel lost on how to cope.
I truly loved her, but she shattered me when she had a child with someone she knew I had issues with. I loved her deeply and gave her everything. I moved for her, scheduled every vacation around her for four years, greeted her at the door, surprised her with gifts, and supported her when she was down. In the process, I lost parts of myself. Being so empathetic sometimes feels like a curse.
It’s hard to believe how much I still miss her. I know I need to let go of the past, but there’s a lot of inner turmoil and grief I still need to work through.

I went through a similar experience, and it took time, but I eventually healed.
Do you ever have sudden reminders of your ex that bring back memories?"
Absolutely, it happens quite frequently. It feels like it’s everywhere. Sometimes, I catch a whiff of his cologne while walking down the street, and all the memories flood back.
@JagoShow Absolutely, it’s really stressful when that happens. I often find myself in the middle of a phone call, saying something she used to say, and suddenly all these flashbacks come rushing back. Today, it all became a bit overwhelming, and I ended up breaking down in tears, but I feel better now, at least."
