My long term boyfriend broke up with me because I have stage three cancer
I have been dating my boyfriend for 11 years. We were planning our lives together. We are both financially stable just enjoying our lives for now.
Life happened I got terribly sick. He was there for me until we found out I have cancer. I couldn’t talk to him properly for two weeks there I found out he does not want to be with me because I had been diagnosed with stage three cancer.
He told me he does not want to live his life stuck with me after I die. I don’t understand what he meant by that.
I was so heartbroken that I felt like he wasted 12 years of my life. He told me he does not want to live with my ghost.
He is scared that he could not move on from me because people around us knew us together if ever I will die. I don’t understand I feel like he’s just making an excuse to break up with me.
It’s been three months since we broke up I am just so lost right now I don’t understand what’s going on. I am dying and my long-time boyfriend broke up with me all of a sudden.
It hurts so I don’t know what to do.
Netizens’ comments
- My husband abandoned me during cancer treatment. I had to shut down literally so I could focus on myself. I understand what you’re going through. You don’t deserve this, you didn’t do anything wrong. Some people are not capable of going through this for various reasons. I wish you love but most of all peace
- He made a decision to protect himself from the pain of losing you. Unfortunately, his decision feels selfish and leaves you lonely. I’m so sorry… hope you find something better to distract you in this difficult time.
