Breakup advice and how to cope

So recently me and this guy broke up but not on good terms. He basically slowly stopped responding to me and eventually ghosted me. I’ve already sent him a message about how I felt and then blocked him. But I just can’t get over him. I thought he was going to be the one because he seemed like prince charming until this happened. For anyone out there that wants to answer, how did you get over someone you were really into? I can’t stop thinking about him and wondering why he did what he did. I remember noticing his replies getting slower and asked him if everything is okay and he said yes. And that he’s very interested in me. I don’t understand how you can ghost someone you’re interested in. When I am interested I want to talk to them all day everyday.

It does take time. I probably can't give you a perfect answer but this is life and be easy on yourself. Give yourself grace thru this:). I felt the same way when girl's, I was interested in ghosted me. But I got over it and you can too

I’m sorry about your breakup, though it seems like a person who ghosts you instead of having an actual conversation isn’t worth your time. Still, I know it hurts. It takes time to get over someone. Try not to ruminate about him or the relationship…feel your feelings, allow yourself to grieve, and put yourself first. Maybe try something new. Connect with friends. Do something nice for yourself. It will get better. 🙂

another post break-up day that just completely wrecked me. i hate how much this shit won’t leave my mind. i can’t stop going over every detail and bringing myself to the verge of a panic attack. these last few days have been absolute ick. it’s been almost two months—i don’t understand why i’m not better. and it feels so stupid to feel this way and not have my best friend to confide in because he’s not by my side anymore. i just feel sick to my stomach and like walking away from everything i’ve been doing to distract myself because clearly it’s not working. if you have any advice on breakups and navigating them with ocd, please share—i’m struggling more and more every day.

Breakups

Does anyone have any tips for a breakup when you also had/have ROCD? Just found out a few days ago that my partner of 8.5 years was having an affair and he doesn't want to be with me anymore. My heart is completely broken. I had spent the last year healing from ROCD and had genuinely got back to a place where I felt more certain again and back in love but now I have no idea where all of that fits in my life now. He also blames me hurting him as one of the reasons he cheated which is so unfair. I know I hurt him because I did confess all my thoughts to him before I knew what ROCD was, but since learning about it and healing from it I tried so many times to share that it wasn't ever actually about him but he never really understood. He never asked me about this side of my mental health, he just maybe wasn't interested and I'm so angry and upset about that.
