Breaking up with your girlfriend is like an 18-magnitude earthquake happening deep inside you. It's a shock to the system, but it's also an opportunity for a fresh start! Especially when you consider that the past two years have been the best two years in your 30 years.
The heat has not yet subsided, but the end of the song has come! It's a brand new day, and everyone is suddenly faced with news that is hard to understand and accept.
Facing such a sudden earthquake in my heart, I'm excited to share some words of comfort and ideas to help you get out of your current predicament!
1. Keep up your daily routine and habits as much as you can! You'll be amazed at how quickly you can regain a sense of stability in your life.
I sit alone on the sofa every night, feeling like my heart is being wrung out like a rag. During the day, I live like a walking corpse, and at night, when I think about it deeply, I can't help but choke with sobs. I feel so miserable, but I'm excited to see what tomorrow brings!
Day and night, the thoughts of missing someone are like repeated acts of torture. The sudden breakup has intensified the feeling of the impermanence of the world, and the sense of powerlessness that "I can't do anything."
At this time, the most important task is to restore inner self-discipline and help yourself grasp a piece of driftwood from the state of drowning, so as to gradually regain a sense of control over your life. And you can do it!
The absolute best way to get back on track is to jump right back into your old daily routine!
It's time to brush your teeth, wash your face, eat, work, rest, and entertain! Make yourself as usual as possible and enjoy!
The great news is that you can still carry on with her in your daily life. You can still say hello when you wake up and have chats during the week. If she's cool with it, you can even keep up these routines for a while. If she's not, you can still write about her on your own platforms. You can write about her on Douban, your WeChat mini-program or the chat assistant dialogue box.
In short, getting back to your usual daily routine as soon as possible will help you to begin rebuilding a sense of stability in your inner world!
2. When the time is right, have a frank conversation to see if you can save the relationship!
From the message, it can be seen that this is the first time you have had a breakup talk, and the other party's farewell is full of reluctance and regret. So, in fact, some signals are being released here: this relationship did not end because there was no love, but because there was no more love because of tiredness. This is a great opportunity for you to reflect on what you want and need in a relationship. You have the chance to decide what you want your next relationship to look like.
In this sense, the relationship is more "sick" than "dead," which means there's still hope!
Instead of brooding and suffering, you can do something more constructive! Come up with ways to get along and communicate honestly with each other after a period of adjustment and self-reflection. You never know—you might find a way to salvage this relationship!
Give yourself a chance, and give the relationship a chance!
3. Be ready for the best and worst case scenarios. If the relationship can't be saved, you'll have the chance to move on and find something even better!
3. Get ready for the next chapter and give yourself time to celebrate the relationship you had!
Even with the best preparation and most honest communication, we may not necessarily get the result we expect. But that's okay! Because a relationship is always between two people.
If one party decides to let go, then the mourning of the changed circumstances is a natural and exciting next step!
It's totally normal to miss the person and have second thoughts. It's a natural "aftereffect" of the end of a relationship you've deeply loved.
Embrace the feeling of loss! It's a chance to learn to cherish in the midst of loss. And while loss can be scary, it's not the end of the world. You can live a full, happy life even without the person you love. So, give yourself a chance to embrace tomorrow's life!
So, when you're fully prepared for the worst and things don't work out, give it a go!
1. Give yourself a ritual farewell to the relationship!
2. Get the support of your friends and family!
3. Make sure you get out there and do the things you love! They'll cheer you up no end.
In short, do your best and accept what comes! If the relationship is still alive, a temporary goodbye is for the long-term cherish. And if the relationship is over, the good times you have had are memories worth treasuring in this life!
I'm not just exploring human nature, I'm also a therapist who cares about the human heart! I wish you all the best!

I'm really sorry to hear about your breakup. It sounds like you're going through an incredibly tough time right now. Maybe it's important to give yourself permission to feel all these emotions and grieve the relationship. In time, healing will come.
It's understandable that you're feeling lost and heartbroken. Sometimes when we lose someone significant, it feels like losing a part of ourselves. Focusing on selfcare and seeking support from friends or family might help you start to heal.
This must be devastating for you, especially since she was such a big part of your life. It could be beneficial to talk to someone who can provide professional guidance, like a therapist, to navigate these feelings of loss and confusion.
The pain you're experiencing is immense, and it's okay to not be okay. Try to remember that while this feels permanent, your emotions will evolve over time. Engaging in activities that bring you joy or peace can be a step towards recovery.
Breaking up is never easy, especially after two meaningful years. It seems like communication issues and external pressures played a role. Reflecting on what happened and learning from it might help you grow and prepare for future relationships.
