I posted here a few days ago as my partner and I broke up. Just found out she was planning on breaking up with me a few weeks ago, but stayed to see if i ended up buying her something expensive... Was told she didn't really love me, just loved the 'potential' i could bring and offer, so she was pretty much a physical item person. Even though i now see she never loved me, even dumped me through text, its still hard to get over because i genuinely loved her. I opened up and let my guard down, i wear my heart on my sleeve and now im hurt. My therapist is helping me through this, i wrote a letter to my ex then sent it to her and then blocked her on every social media platform and her number too. I have also started the gym as well, but my problem is just the thoughts of "what if" or "what could've been" and just thoughts/memories of us in general.
If anyone has any advice or tips on mental things to do, to overcome this, i will forever be thankful to you.
