Anons, how do I tell somebody that life has felt damn near empty without them? I've been moving through progress with what is arguably my dream job, but I just don't feel any further enjoyment than being able to tell my parents and friends that "I did good today" or "aww hell yeah, military let me do something cool today". Without -HER-, nothing ever felt the same. I was with her 3 years and then shit got fucked up between the both of us. After 2 years of little to no contact, I don't want to come barging back into her life, but at the same time I'd take her back in a heartbeat. Fuck do I do? This thought is tearing at the back of my mind and keeping me awake.

you don't. you find a way to fill your life before talking to them again.
what you are describing isn't happiness, it isn't love. you are describing withdrawal from heroine.

Stupid opinion but you're right. You need something to pursue to go on with your life and keep your mind occupied away from them.

>stupid opinion but you're right
nope, smart opinion. if you're pining over a girl for 2 years you need to get your shit together

It's just wrong to believe that love is not real. It is real but it was not meant to be for, OP. There is hope for everyone.

OP is quite literally suffering oxytocin withdrawal, "love" just makes it sound more noble

Yeah yeah it's all brain fluids whatever, The key point is that he needs to face the truth that they will never get back. He needs to move on and pursue other important things to get back his self-worth.

If it's been 2 years, the harsh truth is you're never getting back together. If she loved you like you seem to love her, she would have tried contacting you, tried staying in touch. It just wasn't meant to be.
Chalk it up as a loss, and try to learn to never let yourself get so attached to someone unless you are 100 percent certain they are equally attached to you.
