I dont know what to do

[smitty420]

hey whatsup everyone. Im RYan im 18 and im about to go to college in gainsville florida. I live in south florida and i feel lost at the moment. Since july 2 2005 i dated a girl jamie whos 2 years younger then me. We were totally in love and dated untill july 12 2006. We had been havign some problems and arguments and thigns seemed different for a few monthes but we felt we were strong enough to make it through anything. Then last night jamie randomly ended thigns with me over the phone. Nothing too major had happened recently it had just been a slow roll downhill. We both cried on the phone and we both still love eachother, she said she loves me so much but cant have a boyfriend right now and I was just like r u sure thats what u want and she said yes. Well we talked for awile and plan on staying close and she called me last night again to talk and say gnite and it was so bad. It was semi akward convo about ubllshit stuff then when it came time to go to bed it felt so empty without the i love u i love u 2. I was like jamie i still care about you o much and she started crying then i did and she was like i care for u so much too but we cant be together anymore. Well this morning she called me since shes my alarm clock for work and htigns were ocmpeltly wful. She got on the phone and was like hi i just wanted to wake u up i gotta go ill talk to u later. She sounded terrible as did i and was probably crying. I feel lost right now. Like part of me is gone forever, i cant eat and am naseaus. I dont know what to do i dont know if i should try to get her back or just try to be friends. Im scared that if i try to get her back shell cut things off entirely abd we wont talk anymore. I know im going to college and theres 50 000 girls for me to meet but i feel like theres no one out there quite like her. Im sick to my stomach and she is too she told me she was about to pukle last nite. I have no clue on what to do i just feel totally lost and sad. I always used to laugh at young kids my age getting upset over breakups thinking how are they upset there 18 years old no one gets married that young theres a million fish in the sea etc etc but i just am overwhelmed with sadness. I dont know if i should try to get her back now or just remain close with her and see what the future brings. We already decided that no matter what we will stay close because we both need eachother i just want to do the best thing. Any advice please will be greatly appreciated.

listen from past exp's i can just say this...dont talk to hr anymore, its hard but it has to b done because its only just gonna keep eating at u trust me, and when she gets a new man its even wore believe me, just lose her numba and tell her to do the same and call it the end

[strider115]

her** worse**

[smitty420]

I cant do that, part of me wants to but i just cant. The other part of me wants to do something heroic like in the movies and come back and get her back and make thigns happily ever after. Im so confused and sad and upset i feel like my heart got ripped out of me. I cant just delete her from my life. Weve talked everyday for over a year and we dated for over year. Ive spent soo much of my life with her i cant just end it and pretend it never happened. Im thinking about writing her an email thanking her for are relationship and for what she gave me in terms of love, herself, her soul etc.. and expressing to her i want to remain close. I was just in the middle of typing it and exited out because i feel it is way too soon for that. Shes supposed to be calling me tonight but i dont know if thats just gonna make it worse or whatnot. Im sick over this i cant believe this happened to us I had everything i ever wanted. I cant just delete her from my life i dont know what i want to do. I dont even know if i want to get back together or not because when we eventually breakup i dont want to feel this same pain and sadness again.

If we were older shed be the girl i marry but w.e weve been texting and i think were gna b able to stay friends and maybe ill get some benefits . Im gonna miss the little things like the i love yous and the anniversaries and the random emails she sends and such but ill be ok. I mean im goin to University of Florida in a month about to be surrounded by thousands of new people and women to meet. Ocala is reeeel close to Gville we should smoke one up (or 2 or 3 or 4 or 5 .....) when i go up to gville. My aim is rs2base78 if u wanna hit me up. Thanks for the help guys i mean it only happened yest so itas the only thing im thinking about. But well be ok she told me shell always be close to me whether its as a gf in the future or best friend or whatnot and i told her the same. It sucks feeling so shitty right now though, im having the same feeling as if a loved one of mine died and it sucks.

shes hideing something, you said her reason was that the two of you cant be together anymore.

Did you ask why that is?

From past experience I can see this being a pre-imtive strike on her part.

Thats saying she is trying to save herself pain down the line from the likelyhood you will hook up with another at college.

It's also not uncommon for couples to go thru a stage like this when a seperation is forthcomeing, I was in the Navy and I went to a couples siminar on seperation cycles because I was being deployed on the ship for 6 months.

In the cycle its not irregular for there to be this sense of anxiety based on things that may or may not happen. Useing a metaphore, its like building a wall between the two of you in order to not feel so much pain when the time comes for you to leave her behind. This explains the down hill rolling effect of the relationship.

You seem to be pretty aware of your emotions tho which is excellent, take this opritunity to grow from the experience.

If you make a move like the ones you see in the movies, you just may be setting yourself up to be locked into something simply because you dont want to deal with the pain of the loss.

OK, my Dr. Phil moment is over, good luck man, I hope what ive said can help you. I'm sure there are books you can get to better help explain the phycological cycles im talking about.

Peace.

she told me she loves me but we cant be together anymore because she cant have a bf in her life right now. her reasoning was that with an important year of school coming up she doesnt have time for work, school, friends, and a boyfriend especially one in college. i asked if she wanted to be single to meet guys and she was hurt when i asked and so no way and that i would be that guy if she wanted a relationship. I am starting to feel slightly better due to friends, her promises that we will always be close, and even my fellow cannabis.com members. It just hurts really bad i feel like i dont remember how to talk to girls or pick them up since i havnt needed to use those skills in about 18 monthes. She is as of right now the love of my life so maybe something is in store for us down the road, (shell probably go to college about an hour away from me instead of the 5 hours it will be this year). It sucks really bad but ive heard good things about gainsville girls, and im so young im 18 years old. Last night i was really upset and having thoughts of being single my hwole life and no girl is gonna love me like she did and does but then today i realized ive never had a problem getting chicks so why start now.
