What do you do after you break up? My boyfriend and I have been together for almost two years and we both knew it wasn't working and we called it off. I feel so alone and anxious. I want to call him but I know we can't make it work. I don't know what to do.
You're going through withdrawal and you're grieving. Especially if the break up wasn't a bad one, we sometimes romanticize what we actually had. We begin to feel lonely and just a tiny bit desperate as if we will never find someone else to love and was it really that bad? We sometimes do it even when the break up was bad and we're better off with it.
What you do is realize you made a decision that in the long run is best for you and you live with it. we start to get into trouble when we let the fantasy take over the reality and begin to live outside ourselves.
If you and your ex know it is not going to work out you need to remember what was good about being in a relationship and carry that with you. It will get better. It will ease up and sooner rather than later you will find yourself again.
