Have you ever lost a significant other?

[Anonymous]

Lost like they died. And how were you finally able to move on? Or did you?


I'm finally seeing someone new and I'm trying my best to be happy with her, but it all just feels wrong. She's not her and she never will be. That's not fair to her, I know. But it's either this or be lonely and miserable. I don't know what to do.

i lost one but she didn't really die i just haven't seen her at all for some time , she just sort of disappeared and no longer in my life or anywhere that i'd be. so its kind of the same thing but she's still alive somewhere else i just can't see her anymore

Same general feeling I imagine. Did you move on?

i've tried to date other people , well meet other girls , i still crave the original girl more though

[Asker]

I'm with you there. Appreciate you sharing

[Opinion Owner]

i don't know if she'll ever come back and if she does will it be the same as before? it be easier to move on if i knew her true feelings we never even really talked about this

[Asker]

She just took off on you? That's weird

[Opinion Owner]

its weird , she left at the end of summer to go back to school but never seen her when she's back home , she used to come out to the pub on weekends but never around anymore i haven't seen her for months , didn't see her during Christmas break or anything

[Asker]

No closure. That's probably the hardest part

[Opinion Owner]

yes there never really was any closure , i tried to send her a message online but she didn't even reply , she could of at least talked to me about this and explained why she was upset or what was going on here

[Asker]

Yeah that's some BS man

An ex of mine died a couple of years after we had broken up. Felt sorry for her and her family because the break up was amicable.

Her partner at the time was completely devastated.

No, never lost because I never had one in the first place. I have always been single.
