Original Reddit post

I am currently going through an existential crisis and could really use some perspective from others who have been through something similar. I was in a deeply committed, intimate relationship for over five years, only to eventually discover that I had been cheated on for more than seven months before I found out. Because I was so emotionally attached, the betrayal caused me immense physical and mental trauma that was incredibly difficult to bear. About six months after that breakup, I met someone else who truly helped me heal and made me feel alive again. However, after four months of what I thought was a meaningful connection, she ghosted me without providing any reason or closure. I am struggling to understand why this keeps happening to me and how to overcome this repeated heartbreak. I would appreciate any advice on how to stop blaming myself or my “luck” and how to finally begin the healing process after being let down so many times. submitted by /u/DoctorToBe69
