I’ve been with this girl for 4 years and we’ve been living together for 2 years. I really thought this was the girl I was going to marry and have kids with. I’m 29 and she’s 26. We were doing well up until a certain point I felt she wasn’t trying enough. She even became less flirty and having sex with her felt like a chore. I feel like she was cheating on me. She eventually broke up with me saying we aren’t compatible anymore. I had a gut feeling this was coming and I think it’s a BS excuse. I had recently lost my job and had a tough time finding a new one. I also recently had gone through a surgery. All in all I had to move back in with family because I have hit rock bottom. Nevertheless I feel positive that I no longer have her in my life but I can’t shake this feeling of emptiness and loneliness. Even after the breakup I feel an indifference from her. Fuck her. This really changed how I view relationships in the long run. I will never wanna settle down again. I sacrificed a lot and ended up with nothing. She even kept the dog. Idk why I wrote this post I guess I just wanted to vent. It’s been a couple of weeks and yeah I am not really in a healthy place mentally.

Edit: Thank you all for your wonderful words of support. I do feel significantly better being able to share my story. We are all strangers but share many similar experiences. Especially other men.

A big lesson to take away from this relationship was to never prioritize a woman. Always prioritize yourself and family. Take care yall.
