Kinda typical right? 2

Kinda typical right? 2.5 months since the breakup one week no contact. It hits different knowing they're out partying living it up while I'm just tryna survive every day. I know you're not supposed to compare healing but the difference is so obvious.

For sure it’s pretty normal for guys (me included) to hit the party scene and mess around right after a breakup. From the outside it looks like we’re vibing. But then one day reality hits we realize we messed up and it hits hard.

Is that like a coping thing? I try not to compare but yeah I’m just taking it day by day, hour by hour and they’re out here living their best life. Feels like I’m carrying all the weight of the loss and pain while they’re just cruising through it.

Sorry you're feeling that hurt I really get it. I’m not lying when I say I know exactly how it feels. You can write about what’s hurting you I do it all the time been doing it for like months now. It feels like it doesn’t get easier but every once in a while I can breathe and have a moment of peace.
You’re not alone.

just stick to NC be patient and ride it out it’s the worst but i’m sorry ur dealing with this. promise it gets better over time. my gf broke up with me on dec and it’s been days of NC. ngl i’m feeling way better barely crying now. maybe deactivate ur socials or block him if u can. try a new hobby hang with fam and friends and seriously rant to ur besties it helps so much. just don’t break NC. u got this.

Yeah I'm trying to do all the right things keeping busy with work focusing on selfcare but the pain, the loss, the grief... it's just so loud so heavy. I get that healing isn't a straight line and I know I shouldn't compare but it's tough not to. Thanks for being kind.

@Time2shine Ayo I’m sorry but there’s nothing you can really do about this. Pain and grief are just part of the process but they help build you stronger so you’ll come back even better. I get the comparing part I did that a ton too. It’s kinda involuntary but trust you’ll start doing better sooner than you think. Just stay patient. If you ever need someone to talk to I got you. Good luck you got this.
