My girlfriend of 5+ years left me, yesterday. She moved to the east coast, last week, to start a graduate program. We drove out by car, and I helped her get settled in, etc.. I flew back home on Monday. It made more financial sense for her to head out solo, at this point; so I've been looking for work out there, and hoping to move out in 8-12 months. But she called, yesterday, on the way to a function, and told me that it was over. And I just can't believe it. I just can't believe it. And I don't know how I'm ever going to make it through this, after all of this time and given the circumstances. And everybody says this, I think, but I really didn't see it coming. Honestly, nothing was wrong. From the superficial to the deep, we were (I thought) happy. At any rate, I was; and nothing was wrong for me.
Of course, there are all kinds of further details that could be shared about everything. I'm sorry, but I don't really want to put everything out in a public forum, like that. I just needed to get it off of my chest in writing, I suppose. Even just the most basic version possible. I won't really get into it any more. If you care to make them, ha, well-wishes are obviously totally welcome and very appreciated. But you don't need to. It's okay. I just...I don't know. I just had to say it, right now. I'm so sad and so angry and so scared and it just hurts too much to even feel.
