She's getting married

I have basically the same story except she got pregnant.

Stay strong anon, we will survive this ;_;

OP here.

Wow, I don't know what to say. Sorry to hear that man.

>>18093708
Can empathize, OP. Kudos to you to just end it after knowing it will not works. Most trapped in the limbo thinking they could make it work and suffer the lifetime.

This too shall pass. May this build you a foundation for a more better future.

To be fair, I dragged this for close to 4 years. I guess the "empty" feeling i got is more like I wore out all these junk emotions that have piled up over the years.

On the bright side, you now won't have to drag it into your grave.

I know someone who dragged it into their grave. While from outside it's looked normal, they are crumbling inside and became and empty shell of their former selves.

Truly a sight to behold.

> it's stupid trying to get back with my ex.

Not really. She (probably) gave you some sort of happiness and you wanted to keep it. There's nothing wrong with wanting to go after your own happiness.

Anyway i'd say you feel empty because you tried so much and then it amounted to nothing. Also, you trying so much is most likely what turned her off to you. A lot of the time bro you've just gotta display the self-discipline to stop pushing the rock and let her do it all by herself.
Granted you didn't give much of a story to go off of,but that's just the way I see it.

its the sinking feeling of its over
forever
unreversably
finito
caputt
the end

many of us daydream about getting back with HER, sometimes just for 5mins, sometimes a dream, sometimes every day, every 6 months

we fight it, put layers over it so it doesnt come to the surface, get new gfs, new friends, new jobs, but its laying down there

its a useless thought to hold on to but we do anyway
its the realization of:
theres no way back

i should know, i saw her dancing at her wedding

I think based on these comments, as sad as these experiences are, it's nothing new - other people have experiences it, and even conquered it, so why can't we?

>>18093708
I'm sorry to hear this happened OP

Honestly, there isn't much you can, as harsh as it is. She's moved on, and you haven't, it hurts. You will get through it. No matter how crappy you feel or how much you miss her, you will make it anon! Love is a burden like no other, and we all suffer in it's grasp.

Wtf is wrong with women?

What do you mean?

>I don't know what to make of it.

Just move on, of course. There's no point in obsessing over something that's forever gone.

Oh wow, you're literally me. The girl I was into fell into an abusive relationship though and I had the chance to get her back last year but didn't take it.

Wise move. You wouldn't want damaged goods.
