My ex broke up with me saying I was too clingy

My ex broke up with me saying I was too clingy. We had been seeing each other for months and were physically involved but he still uses dating apps and refuses to commit. I want a real exclusive relationship with him but he isn’t willing to give me that. What should I do?

when you picture staying in this as it is right now, does it feel safe and calm for you, or mostly anxious and waiting?

I didn’t listen to my ex and now I’m heartbroken and in pieces. Listen to him now and walk away. Then don’t ever look back. you’ll heal and move forward. I wish I listened to this advice when I was told it at the beginning because I’m suffering now.

this is brutal, but when someone tells you they won’t commit and keeps dating apps, i try to believe them.

i was called “too clingy” too, but really i just wanted consistency and exclusivity. turns out he wanted the benefits without the responsibility. that realization HURT.
