I just broke a girls' heart

Wait. Give it time. It will eventually get better. You did good by talking to her face to face, too.

Don't see breaking up as something you did to hurt her, but as if you gave her and yourself a chance to meet someone better and be happier.
Good things are always a bit painful and risky at first.
If you're convinced it was the right thing for you both, you did good.

How did you do it?

We walked and talked about it for around an hour. She wanted to stay together but I had to push her back. I won't state the reasons.

I just feel terrible.

Not much you can do desu. Just like with most anything else, it feels most intense when it's fresh, but with time it'll just fade away.

All you can really do is just remind yourself of the reasons why you broke up, and know that those reasons were good reasons, and were always going to have to result in this situation.

It's better that it happened now, instead of down the line, because if you leave shit like this too long on the back burner it has a nasty habit of festering, fast, and becoming toxic.

Trust me, I've seen plenty of relationships blow up because the spark and relationship was dead (either on one end or on both), but they didn't wanted to admit it, and they stuck around, and they ended up passive aggressively hating each others guts.

My best friend did it, and I lost someone I thought of like a little sister.

A family friend did it, and he's now a bachelor at 50, throwing himself in to the online dating world, kicking himself because their marriage basically over after maybe 5 years at most, but spent almost three times that trying to make something work that never would.

They're both single now, dating other people, and the best of friends, but they wasted a shit ton of time and almost ruined their friendship trying to make it work.

I don't need and don't want you to post specifics. You acted like a grown man. Even though you knew this wouldn't be an easy talk you didn't chicken out and broke up via facebook or text message. That's something that should be appreciated. You feel bad because she was a part of your life and even though you don't see the future together, you didn't want her to suffer. That's what makes you human.

>I won't state the reasons.
If you want to feel better, you're going to have to make peace with those reasons. Telling them to another person can help.

Find a slutty girl, take her back to your apartment and blow a load on her face while thinking about your ex.
