Emptiness

I just broke up yesterday with my boyfriend of 1 year and 7 months. I always had an inside feeling that in the long run I need to be with someone with more ambition and that we have more things in common. I knew that if I would let the relationship go on longer it would just hurt me and him even more and we really did love each other so much even though I know that inside that I need more out of my partner. I feel so empty inside and broken and so much pain. Don’t know what to do.

I’m in the same boat, but we had been dating 3 years and 3 months. I still love him so much, but we didn’t have a future together (I want kids/he doesn’t and he was barely getting by with his job). I think I’ve known for a while it could never really work out. I am still processing it and have major pain, and I also feel like my heart is empty without him, but a month after the break up I am now having moments where I can say, “This was for the best.” Just go one day at a time knowing it will get better. And at least you cut it off before you got even more
