So, I got dumped today.
The worst part is, it was extremely amicable. She needs time to figure out her life, and says I did everything right in the relationship. But I just feel like complete trash right now.
I've seen this coming for weeks, but I've been trying to push it into some dark corner of my mind. How do you leave someone who you've shared a bed with every night for 4 years? How do you learn to sleep alone again?
I'm kind of floundering right now. We have all the same friends, and spend most of every day together. I don't know how to recalibrate just yet, I feel like I structured so much of my life around her.
We've been together for the entirety of what could be called our adult lives, so I don't really know how to feel right now.
Sorry this is so melodramatic, I just feel like I can't be super emotional around my real-world friends about this.
Any advice?
EDIT: You're all awesome. I really appreciate the kind words and good advice, it has all helped a lot. I'm not doing 100%, but I have definitely started re-evaluating a lot of my priorities.
