It’s been 8 days since the breakup

Author

It’s been 8 days since the breakup, and 2 days of no contact. Today was the first day I felt a small glimmer of hope for the future, but I’m still having a really hard time. I’m very tempted to text him to wish him well and ask him hows he feeling and if he misses me as much as I miss him. I’m wondering if he found a new place to live yet. I’m also dealing with a lot of anger since he hurt me so much throughout our relationship. But I just feel so lonely, even around others, and It feels so painful to go from seeing him almost every day for almost 4 years, to not even texting. It’s the hardest in the evening/night.

It’s normal to miss someone after so long but try to focus on the glimmer of hope you felt today.

No contact is so hard but it’s the best way to heal. You’re stronger than you think

Evenings are always the hardest but you’ve got this. Try to distract yourself with something you enjoy

Breakups are so tough especially after such a long time together. Sending you hugs you’re doing great by staying strong
