I keep thinking about the way he broke up with me, am not mad about the break up itself am just hurt by the way he broke up with me. He just sent me a text after two years of our relationship on the same day that I was planning for a surprise birthday party for him. I wish he gave me a chance to talk or even to see him for the last time. I don't know how to deal with all that pain, am teared between how angry I am from the way he treated me and the way I miss him and loosing my last chance to say good bye. I wish I had this ending to speak out some of the trapped feeling inside me. Sometimes I feel like I wanna call him just to tell him how much it hurts being dumbed that way. Is it fair not having a nice ending after two years of sincere love? Is there anything I can do to have that satisfying ending?
i have not much advice for you. I have been through a few break-ups with the same girl, and never ever face to face.its always thru sms.so I understand how you feel. there's never a good ending imo. if you are looking for a good ending, those kinds where you can be friends etc, that means that you are hoping he still gives you a chance deep down inside. the reason he was so "hurtful" (to you) about the breakup could be simply because he didn't know what to tell you and couldn't bear to give you any more hope or hurt you anymore. hence the abruptness. by trying to seek closure, you will hurt yourself even more. that's how I tink.yea.hope it helps.
After more than two years I guess sending a text to break up is the most hurtful thing. I know we can not be friends because neither me or him can feel this way for each other. we fell in love since the very first moment. I just need a chance to talk about the things he broke up with me for. I just need to know it, maybe it could be fixed and even if it can't be, it is still my right to know the reasons I was dumped for,,,,,,,...,,....do you think it is fair? - 2 months ago
Life isn't about happy or sad endings, it just goes on.
If it makes you feel better, write him a letter saying how hurt you are by the way he ended things, but make it short and to the point, don't give him more importance that what he deserves and above all do not insult him in any way.
Even if he did break things up as nicely as he could, it is still a breakup for whatever reason. Just focus on getting yourself over him as quickly as you possibly can and move on with your life.
That's amazing that anyone would do that after 2 years. Although I have heard similar stories, always when the problem is he's met someone else and just can't face the woman with that, too embarrassed and I think ashamed as well. I'm assuming that's what happened here as well.
Personally I don't understand how he can not have TOLdD you what was happening face to face! He could have just said he wanted to break up and didn't want to tell you why. At least you could have seen him when he said it, and you wouldn't have been planning that party!
You have the right to contact him and ask him why but I'd be VERY surprised if it were ANYTHING else! So you may not want to hear it all the same. That may be what he's thinking. It's easier on you not to hear about it. But of course you eventually WILL hear about it, in fact I'm surprised you haven't found out the reason. Or have you?
But of course he knows it's worse ending it like that, without a final goodbye even, and knowing you will probably find out eventually anyway. He knows that's not exactly going to spare your feelings, as you have explained. It's probably even more painful like this than if he had told you there was someone else, right?
I guess I know the reason but am not even sure if it was the right reason, just guessing. I think he is not ready for any type of commitment but I wanna stress on the point that I didn't push him for anything serious. I am sure that there is no one else but am not sure of his love anymore although he told me many times how much he loves me & how much he cares. I knew he was not the kind of guys who likes to commit but I didn't know he would let go of me because of that after 2 years with a text. - 3 months ago

Maybe your're right, It's just that usually this behavior means there's someone else..obviously I can't know for sure from what you've said. But I still SUSPECT you will eventually find out that's what's going on!! - 3 months ago
That doesn't sound good at all but you deserve more than that. If the break up was very recent then you could contact him and just ask why although be prepared as it could hurt ya more.
Another thing you could do if the break up was like a few weeks ago. You could simply write a letter. Keep writing that letter to him untill you actually have nothing more to write no matter how long the letter goes on for. Seal the envolope and put it in a box in your room and forget about it. it weill help you say what you want to say then in a few years time you'll come across that letter and you'll not have no feelings for hm at all so burn it or keep it which ever.
Something very similar happened to me literally like two hours ago. Only we'd only been together for a year. And we never officially said we were dating in the first place. I found out he was done when he just randomly switched his relationship status on Facebook to "In A Relationship". I talked to him about it immediately after I found out and all he said was he was sorry and it was unexpected. Like that was suppose to help or something.
There's a part of me that so badly wants to yell and scream at him and tell him he's making a mistake. But that part of me is completely irrational and I know it. The deed is done. You let go, you cry, you write your feelings out in a letter you'll never send, and hopefully it will get better.
I already did write a letter which I know I would never send. I will never call as well. I know it's hard but I also know that I have to move on. But it was two years in which he told me how much he loved in every single day, we were lovers and best friends so I guess you can imagine how much am attached to him. I wish things would ended in a better way because if it was my decision I would make sure to be honest after all what we have been going through together. - 3 months ago

Yeah, it does really suck to have to live with their crappy choice of breaking up. I know for me it just makes me feel like all of what we had meant absolutely nothing to him
But it's great that you're so focused on moving on, cause that's really all you can do now. I really hope things get better for you
And, I don't know what kind of music you're into, but I just recently found out Breaking Benjamin is a pretty good band to listen to. It's angry, but not really depressing. It's helpin me at least - 3 months ago
I agree with Shlei3, the EXACT same thing happened to me. All I did was send an email and attempt to move on with my life. It was hard but it was one of the best things that happened to me, my life has gotten WAYYY better without him, and I know in the near future you will see it that way too. Keep your head up and don't forget that this experience just made you closer to finding the one who won't do you like this! :)
Is it fair? No. But it happened unfortunately. What can you do about it? Well you could send him an email letting him know how you feel. It doesn't mean he's going to respond to it or even read it. But sometimes that's all you can do. Getting closure out of it is not always easy. But use it as motivation to move on. If he after those two years cannot be decent enough to talk to you face to face and allow you to say your peace than it shows what character he has. A text message is not a good way to end things. He chose this unfortunately. I'm sorry.
Breaking up has got to be one of the suckiest times in our lives. I wish someone had warned me about how painful they really can be. But apparently I missed that memo. Getting back on your feet again...
The big fight. Many couples never see it coming. They are not prepared and don't know how to deal with it. They don't know how to make up after a fight. Once you've had the big fight emotions are...
