Surviving a break up

I haven't read the article but shall go ahead right now. Basically two days ago me and my ex were talking about who know's London better it went on for ages was just a dumb conversation over whether he knows it since living there for six months at Uni or I know it better from living there for 5 years or having used to visit every weekend. Anyway it was really stupid I said it should stop but it carried on then he said 'I'm done engaging in this x' so then I stopped and just mentioned places he knows better and I know better thinking it would be nice to take each other to those places. Then all of a sudden he blocked me on whatsapp.

Messaged me the next day saying '**** off, I asked you to stop you wouldn't so I blocked you to stop communication simple' I said that is fair enough but no need to be swearing at me he then said 'you're ridiculous I don't have time for you, bye' and hasn't messaged me since I have no idea what is going on we promised to meet in person if we were to say goodbye, he still has a few of my things, I've done a lot for him recently and now he just wants me out of his life forever just because we had one meaningless conversation. That truly makes me feel worthless. I'm the sort of person who could handle a break up if it were fair and explained but so quick and so heartless. We weren't together but we were getting close again and all of a sudden I'm tossed aside like I never meant a thing to him, it doesn't so much hurt or even make me angry, it simply confuses me as to how somebody can do this after being so kind.

To anyone broken up with through text it sucks I'm not going to lie but honestly if that's all the time they have for you is a 3 second text then you made a lucky escape. I'm hoping in my situation he just needs space because he has never ignored me like this before I just don't get why he wouldn't just tell me he needs space rather than go totally quiet. Surround yourself with the good people in your life those that actually make an effort no matter what, don't allow yourself to be walked over I realize that I was: too nice, too generous, too understanding I allowed myself to be treated like a bitch all I've ever wanted is just a little respect

The way your ex broke up with you was pretty cowardly...but at least you got a chocolate bar...? Haha.

The blog post was good! Sounds like you're finding the positives pretty quickly.

Am I the only one who finds it disturbing that he referred to you as "his baby"? Since when did people enter into relationships with babies...

Yeah I've been broken up with via text... Not nice!
Don't feel worthless, he doesn't sound like he cares if he can end it so quickly and harsh.
Has he got into contact since?

He didn't get in contact he continued to ignore me until I messaged him on badoo, (he has always had it not a new thing) he said 'i just want you to leave me alone for a while and if you can't do it for just a while then it will have to be forever' I messaged asking how long is a while and will we be fine after he said 'I don't know I just need time to think' then blocked me :/

Boys, eh?!
I suggest you leave him to it, it may be hard but wait until he comes back to you and see what he says. It doesn't seem right him just wanting to leave you alone. If he doesnt get back in touch - don't make a big fuss. I also suggest you focus on your own life for a little while, whilst he's focusing on his. Decide what you really want; remember to put your happiness before his. If he can easily leave you like that... is he really worth it??

Aw no, break ups suck
Are you okay?

Thank you both of you

I am I'm just working through the 12 steps in the article I posted and I'll be good! how are you feeling?

Im sorry about you broke up, and whilst i fully appreciate that relationships end for a multitude of reasons (that doesnt make either party a bad person) he could at least have the stones and the respect to do it to your face.

Time is the only healer and activities to keep your mind off it

Yeah, he was a coward for not doing it to my face, but there's nothing else I can do! Oh well, stuff like this happens.

It's just harder to deal with because I've got extra stress with uni, family problems and health issues!

It can be quite tough to do it face to face though. I had to end my relationship face to face because I needed to hand back some of his possessions and it was incredibly hard - he looked like he had been punched in the gut. Face to face is the respectful way though.

On the plus side, I'm already on Step 4 of the 12 steps, so feeling quite good!

Thats so insensitive - your ex sounds like a bit of a dick tbh. I think you're better off without him!

My god, this person sounds like an absolute child. Has he ever gotten irrationally angry/immature about small things before? I know nobody likes to be proven wrong (as it sounds like you OBVIOUSLY knew more than he did and he didn't like that fact!) but to react that way, swear at you and ignore you over it makes him sound like a sulky preteen. From this, you deserve better

Perhaps it's just me but i really can't decide whether chocolate and a note was a nicer way to do it or a cowards way to do it.
