How to get over a breakup where everything was good? Me and my gf of 4 years broke up 2 months ago because she wanted kids and i just couldnt convince myself it was a good idea. Im 40 i have chronic health issues, no tolerance for loud noises and strong smells. I hate the whole “my sole job is to provide and run around doing errands” lifestyle. So she left but how the fuck do i get over this. I mean even when she left she said i love you to me… So its not like “hey its for better you guys were fighting all the time or whatever” were best friends, lovers who loved to pillow talk and be affectionnate towards each other. Now its all gone… We still have the house to sell so we communicate for that but like yesterday was her last day in the house (she was house sititng our house while i was away on a trip) and she texted me “i will missss this bed it was soo comfy” but why even text me that? Is she looking to start a conversation? Btw the kid convo happened last july so she gave me like 8 months to decide and i just couldnt do it so she didnt randomly leave over night…she was seeing a therapist and her leaving was a very VERY difficult decision for her. Lots of tears and heartache. I mean is there anything to do at all or should i just pretend like she died and i should never think about her again? Finding a good connection these days is sooo difficult and i know because i was single for 15 years before meeting her so now im just back to square one. And all this because she wanted kids…but for us…it wasnt a good idea to have kids. submitted by /u/musicandsex
