my boyfriend broke up with me before the holidays and it was too sudden for my comfort. the past couple weeks I noticed his pulling away. I try to ask him what's wrong and I only get general answers or he doesn't open up. he started putting his friends above me and it made me feel terrible. I had to talk to him about it but I didn't know that would be the reason why he wasn't around as often. I wanted to spend one good last day together before and around the holidays but the want wasn't mutual. he was the greatest person I've known, he wasn't some social recluse like I'm used to dating. he was outgoing, really extroverted. for the first time it felt real. I didn't feel like some kind of fetish he wanted to keep hidden away, all of his friends knew who I was but it doesn't matter now. he's made up his mind. I understand his want to further your career and everything, I just wish it didn't mean we couldn't be together. he wants to remain friends but I'm honestly not sure if I'm up for it, I feel like his other "friends" will be his priority now. I'll miss everything we had. the timing was just awful.
>>42120494damn that sucks
>>42120494I'm sorry nona. That sounds awful. I never had a Christmas breakup. I had a birthday breakup, so I can sympathize from that perspective. I think I also get it feeling real for once.Even if you were up for it, I'd suggest not trying to stay friends, at least not right away. The couple of good relationships I have with exes are ones where we both gave ourselves some time and space to readjust.
>>42120494im sorry nona. i know how awful it feels when they suddenly start pushing you away like that and wont be real with you anymore. i hope you can find a bit of comfort or solace during this holiday season, ill keep you in my thoughts
