Break Ups and Bounce Back

So today, I ended up breaking off a relationship of three years because it had become more of me consoling her, than anything else. It was difficult, and I hurt all over at the moment. Especially in my right arm.

Point is, has anyone went through something like this recently? What is a good way to bounce back? And, is there any post break up doujinshi that exist? Honestly, I wouldn't put it beyond the community.

I'll talk about it now since it's been a bit. I recently broke up with my boyfriend and it was mutual enough (no hard feelings, though I think he was more hurt then I was sadly). We just had a difference of opinions and with distance being a big factor things just got rocky. Do hope we can talk again in the near future, he was such a good friend beyond anything else.

I'm still bouncing back from it since we were together for quite a bit (2+ years), but each day get's easier. I just look at it as I want to be happy and I want the same for him. We both were miserable for quite a bit and I just want to have fun and keep moving forward. If I find someone else to love that's great, but I'm not looking for that. I just want good company and good memories so that is more important then a new relationship.

So I would say just do how I am. Enjoy the time you have at the moment and find things that make you laugh and smile. I know playing good videogames and watching good anime was my go to. I also slept a lot, cried when I had to and talked with friends I trusted whole-heartily. Don't talk to friends who know your ex or were closer to your ex then you were to them. They may listen to you, but it could get ugly if you're not careful with your words.

Also just take time for yourself and eventually you'll find when it's good to get back out on the dating scene. It can suck to be single, but make the most of it till the right person comes around the corner. I know I don't mind being single since I have great friends and I'm working hard on my future right now so I just go with that in mind and am hopeful the next person I meet will be even more awesome then the last.

Basically just take some time away from each other until there's no feelings of sadness or whatever you're feeling when/if you see her again.

And on the bright side, now you know what to look out for in your next relationship.

Sounds fairly similar to my situation. I broke up with my ex because she was in a funk in her life and constantly depressed. I stuck with her and consoled her to the best of my ability for a few months, but things just weren't getting any better. While you might feel bad for not being able to help her, you have needs, too. Perhaps spending some time away from each other will give her the insight she needs to get better. I would advise you to remove yourself from her life completely if possible, at least for the time being. Otherwise neither of you will be able to truly move on.

As for a good way to bounce back, I honestly don't know. I'm still working on that. School has kept me focused on the present, and helped me to make new friends. Try giving yourself a few short-term and long-term goals. It'll keep you focused on moving forward.

Sadly, I don't have anything to distract me like that. School and work are both out of the question due to a recent surgery, so I'm basically stuck at home hoping for January to come. The whole "setting goals" thing may work, however, I can't think of anything off the top of my head.

I just recently broke up with my long term boyfriend. It was really hard because we also lived together but then he had to move quite far for work.
I've been going out, drinking a lot and meeting new people. Might not be the best thing to do, but it lets me slip out of reality. It's been a few weeks and I'm kind of content with how my life is right now, it might not be the best but at least I'm not sad over a broken relationship.
Since you can't really do anything, maybe take up a new hobby or watch some tv shows that you've been meaning to watch.

Last relationship was a horror movie even though we were cool and shit. It was awhile ago. College. I have seizures if i have low sugar, but this time i had a major one in front of her friends which i pissed my pants and flopped like a shark on the beach. Bitch just left in embarrassment. Lucky my friend was cross the street and he made me eat my glucose tab and got my ass somewhere else. That one keep me alone for a while just because of the event and the chick.

My other break ups weren't too bad nor phased me. My first girlfriend was the cause of my near death but that was my fault of drinking and riding motocross at the same time after she dumped me. I learn not to give a shit after i was able to walk and talk... and that lead into why i had my seizure. Damaged my system badly. Now im just a beetus man.

Moral is don't let it control you.

Just keep yourself busy with anything you can find. Read about new things, talk to people online and IRL. Cry as much as you need. Just stay away from her as much as you can (unless you plan on getting back together), having the person out of your life will help you move on faster. If it was that kind of relationship where you end up nursing her feelings more than anything and it's dragging both of you down, then you just gotta keep in mind it was the best thing to do. Also,give yourself time.
