We started dating back in Standard 11. At first it was all childish and innocent but things changed once we became a little physical. Over time we grew deeply emotionally attached and stood by each other through everything. Of course there were fights but we managed to push through for 5.5 years.
Fast forward to December 2024 things got really ugly. I was preparing for competitive exams and constant relationship conflicts were draining me mentally. I even thought about breaking up but every time I saw her all the fights seemed to fade away. Then in January 2025 I received a text from her saying we should end things. I assumed it was just another fight we’d eventually resolve but this time it wasn’t. That was the end. 5.5 years gone. She left.
At that point I was in the middle of a career downturn unemployed failing exams despite being an above‑average student. I couldn’t stop thinking about her no matter what happened between us. I kept reaching out. We tried again in April but it fell apart within 20 days. Once again I was left stranded.
For months I stayed at home doing nothing until August when I finally got an offer from a reputed company with decent pay in a tier‑1 city. I left but she didn’t care. She knew I was leaving yet didn’t even give me a parting gift. Still I kept contacting her because she had been there for me during those 5.5 years when I had no one else. Coming from a troubled family I was emotionally dependent on her.
Now 12 months later I’m writing this because I tried calling her again only to find I’ve been blocked everywhere: WhatsApp calls Instagram Snapchat Telegram even my office number. That’s new. She didn’t even wish me a Happy New Year.

you reached out this last time, were you hoping to reconnect with her, or were you just needing someone familiar to hold you up during a hard moment
what you’re describing sounds like deep emotional dependence, not weakness.
i was with my ex from school too, years of growing up together, then suddenly nothing. when you’ve leaned on one person through family stuff, losing them feels like losing your anchor. being blocked everywhere is a special kind of pain
