I haven't talked to my ex for 5 days. She cheated on me, we took a break so I could process that, and then I decided I was ready to forgive her.
However, during that break...she completely lost interest in me and became very cold and indifferent. I even paid to ship her stuff to her apartment and I got nothing. I tried to be an adult and end things on good terms but all I got was bitter, cold 1-2 word sentences and a request to not contact her again.
I accepted that she wanted to move on and that's fine but I think she really hated the fact that I asked for a break and used this opportunity to get even with me and it really hurt.
anyway... that's all I wanted to say.

that’s really rough. do you think you’d still want closure from her, or are you more just trying to understand why she switched up so fast?
you handled it way better than most would. honestly, letting her go without matching her coldness shows growth. give yourself some time before trying to make sense of it clarity comes later.
mine cheated too and acted like i was the one who hurt them when i finally pulled back. that coldness after you’ve already been through hell... it’s a whole other kind of pain.
She told me she loved me, but she completely lost interest in me after a 2 week break that initiated due to her cheating. And I've been dealing with it terribly.
one of my true regrets about this situation is that I didn't allow her to come to speak to me in person to explain her cheating. she begged me for that opportunity and I just couldn't have that conversation due to being emotional.
I think we'd still be together now if I had just heard her out.
