I proposed a breakup, but I'm emotional and sad, what should I do? By Anonymous | Published on December 18, 2024

We were both in our first relationships for over a year. In fact, from the beginning I could sense that we weren't right for each other.

When we first got together, I wanted to break up because of his poor grades and carelessness. So I said I wasn't mature enough.

But after the breakup, an unprecedented pain took over my mind. I asked him to get back together, and then we got back together.

Then we had a happy time together. But there were still arguments, and the breakdown came when I shared something that excited me with him.

He seemed to respond, but he was just being polite. Because he wasn't interested, the feeling was that there was just an empty conversation between us.

I don't know when it started, but I felt that he was so bad, and I became grumpy. Whenever I talked to him, I got angry. I felt that after being in a relationship, I had become a terrible person.

Later, I couldn't stand it anymore. I didn't want him to be so humble, and I hated the sensitive and irritable person I had become. I broke up with him. I felt liberated the first week.

The second week, he came to return something to me. We talked again, and he realized that the two of us would not get back together.

He said that breaking up was the best choice for me, and the best choice for him was also the best choice for me. That night I felt bad, always thinking about getting back together.

I kept jumping back and forth between reason and emotion. I really wanted to get back together, but we were doomed to a bad ending.

Good day.

Host:

After a thorough review of the post, I have gained insight into the nuances of the author's emotions. Additionally, I commend the author for his courage in confronting his feelings and seeking guidance on the platform. This initiative undoubtedly facilitated a deeper understanding of his emotions, self-perception, and the nature of love, enabling him to make necessary adjustments to align with his true self.

I would now like to share my observations and thoughts from the post, which I believe may help the poster to gain a deeper understanding of themselves.

1. Accept the negative emotions.

From the post, I can discern the poster's sadness, which is often so overwhelming that it prompts a desire to escape. This is a natural response, but it frequently fails to yield the desired outcome.

I believe the original poster has previously experienced insomnia. When one desires to sleep, it is often difficult to do so. Similarly, when one seeks to escape, it is often challenging to do so.

In conclusion, it is important to accept the negative emotions and allow them to exist. Allow them to flow through you and out of you. Once this process is complete,

It is also typical for our emotional state to encompass positive emotions such as happiness. It is not unusual to experience sadness following the dissolution of a relationship.

It is important to recognise that a significant investment of energy, time and emotion has been made in this relationship, and that there have been positive and enjoyable experiences.

Now that the relationship has ended, you will naturally experience a range of emotions, including sadness.

As emotional beings, we must recognize that our feelings and reactions are not simply mechanical or predictable.

2. Occasionally, relinquishing a situation is not indicative of a lack of affection, but rather an inability to provide the desired level of care to the other party involved.

From the aforementioned post, it is evident that the author has previously attempted to reconcile with a former partner. However, this ultimately resulted in a dissolution of the relationship.

Furthermore, the host reported enjoying the experience, yet simultaneously experiencing negative self-perception. This internal conflict can be highly draining, depleting one's energy and vitality.

It should be noted that this kind of depletion is not something that can be sustained by everyone.

Furthermore, from a reconciliation standpoint, the issues that existed at the time of the breakup have yet to be resolved or are still unmanageable. Naturally, some problems are beyond resolution.

Therefore, it may be advisable to consider letting go at this time. It is important to treat oneself kindly by leaving.

Sometimes, the decision to leave is not necessarily a reflection of the other person's shortcomings, but rather a personal preference based on the emotional state experienced when in their presence. It is not a lack of love, but rather an inability to provide the desired level of love and support.

It is important to allow yourself space, to care for your own wellbeing, and to respect the space of the other person.

3. Reinvest energy and time in yourself.

How would you describe this period of time? It is challenging.

What is the recommended course of action? It is advised that you persevere.

However, we can also direct our attention to our own development and learning.

When contemplating the departed and experiencing feelings of sadness, it is possible to deliberately interrupt one's train of thought, refocus on the present reality, and proceed with the necessary tasks at hand.

It is inevitable that we will be distracted on numerous occasions. However, this is not a significant issue. We simply need to regain our focus.

Additionally, you may wish to consider setting aside a specific period of time for grief and reflection, and reserving the remainder of your time for personal pursuits. It is often the case that time is the most effective form of healing.

I hope these words will provide some inspiration to the original poster. My name is Zeng Chen, and I am a certified psychosomatic coach.

Greetings! I extend a warm embrace from a distance to you first.

The couple experiences discomfort when together but is unable to separate, resulting in inner turmoil, conflict, pain, and helplessness.

The decision to reconcile or separate is an expression of one's inner emotional state. It is therefore important to be aware of the factors that prompted the initial decision to reconcile. Do these factors still exist when the decision to separate is made?

If so, has your need in the relationship changed? This may be indicative of a demand that has arisen as a result of idealizing the other person to an excessive degree. In other words, the other person may prove to be difficult to respond to and satisfy in reality. The decision to end the relationship may be a consequence of the fact that expectations and needs within the relationship are not being met and responded to adequately. Consequently, it would be beneficial to ascertain whether these expectations and needs have been identified and whether efforts have been made to respond to and satisfy them.

It would be beneficial to ascertain whether there is clarity regarding expectations and needs. It may be advantageous to communicate directly with one's partner about needs and expectations, as well as the desired response to ensure satisfaction.

It is essential to be mindful of these aspects and engage in introspective reflection. By cultivating awareness of these issues, individuals can gain insight into their own needs within an intimate relationship and develop strategies for more effectively meeting those needs.

Furthermore, it is important to recognize that expectations of a partner's response and ability to meet one's needs are often shaped by individual expectations. It is essential to understand that each individual's needs and expectations may differ, and it is crucial to recognize this in a relationship. It is also vital to consider whether one is willing to meet their partner's needs and respond to their satisfaction.

It is imperative to treat oneself and others in a manner that aligns with one's expectations regarding interpersonal conduct within a relationship.

The determining factor in whether to end a relationship is whether it is something that can be faced and solved together, and to a large extent, it is this factor that determines the quality of the relationship. If it is, then perhaps it is better to end the relationship for the sake of love; however, if it is not, it indicates a lack of ability to manage the relationship. As long as both parties are willing to grow through the conflicts in the relationship and improve their ability to manage the relationship and love each other, then they can have a happy and harmonious relationship.

A relationship can be viewed as a mirror, reflecting both the strengths and weaknesses of its participants. When both individuals in a relationship are able to identify and address their own shortcomings, and are committed to personal growth and improvement, they may emerge from the relationship with a more nuanced understanding of themselves and their capacity to love and manage relationships more effectively. This process of self-reflection and growth can be a valuable opportunity for personal development, even if the relationship ultimately ends. What are your thoughts on this matter?

Hello, dear. I can see you're feeling a bit confused right now, so I just wanted to give you a hug.

I believe what you are experiencing is a relationship issue. Perhaps it would be helpful to give yourself a warm hug.

1.) I can understand why you are sad now.

It's understandable that you're feeling sad. As humans, we have two brains: the emotional brain and the rational brain.

It seems that, emotionally, you are reluctant to let go of the relationship.

However, the rational brain also suggests that a reunion may not be the best solution, and that it might be more beneficial to move on.

2.) Allow yourself to express your sadness in a reasonable manner.

It is natural to feel sad when one is broken up.

For instance, you might consider going to the gym and having a good, sweaty boxing session with the trainer.

For instance, you might consider going to the gym and having a good, sweaty boxing session with the trainer.

You might also consider going to a remote hilltop and screaming.

If you feel the need to cry, you might find it helpful to retreat to your own bed and allow yourself to do so.

3.) What might be the best course of action in this situation?

It might be helpful to try to distract yourself and keep yourself busy.

If you have something to occupy your time, it may be less likely that you will dwell on the idea of breaking up.

4.) Consider viewing the situation from a different perspective.

Given the current circumstances, it might be advisable to consider ending the relationship. While it is always difficult to end a relationship, doing so now could potentially lead to less distress in the long run.

5.) Advice

If you feel it would be helpful, you might like to consider speaking to a professional counselor.

A counselor may be able to provide additional guidance from a third-party perspective, without judgment and in an objective manner, which could be helpful in this situation.

I truly hope that the issue you're currently facing can be resolved as soon as possible.

I'm afraid I've nothing more to offer at this time.

I hope my above answers are helpful and inspiring to you, young lady. I am the answerer, and I am always learning.

At Yixinli, we extend our warmest regards to you and the entire world. Wishing you the best!

I can totally relate to the emotional rollercoaster you've been through. It's hard when you feel like you're not the best version of yourself in a relationship. Sometimes distance helps us see things clearer and grow as individuals.

It sounds like you both had moments where you were happy, but also times when it felt forced. Maybe this break is an opportunity to reflect on what you really want and need in a partner. It's important to find someone who genuinely shares your excitement about life.

The fact that he supported your decision and acknowledged it was for the best shows he has respect for you. It might be tough now, but with time, you'll heal and learn from this experience. Trust that you'll find a connection that feels right and fulfilling.
