Keeping a relationship going really take two hands to clap. Can’t only be a one sided thing. Both parties need to take the effort to keep it going.
Having studies or work issues affecting the relationship is what many couples experience. It is also a trial that couples will go through. Many made it to the end point too.
Recently, a guy was talking about his relationship 2 years ago with his then girlfriend. He still cannot forget her and will cry sometimes when he think of her.
Here is his post,
“I wouldn’t say that I had just broken up, in fact I had broken up with my girlfriend more than 2 years ago. She was a really nice girl, and I do feel that I have loved her. But perhaps, because we were both too busy, we eventually drifted apart and met up less often. I was also invested in my CCA and wanted to be involved with more school activities. “
“We started to bicker more due to my new female Uni friends, and also the lack of time to spend with her. This resulted in our eventual breakup. The reason was stupid, that we both had to focus on studies and other commitments; and she suggested for us to be back to friends and wait till a time when we were both ready to invest in a relationship to try again. “
“I did not reply to that break up message, but I knew I wanted the relationship to go like how she said: for us to reconcile at a time when we were both ready to invest in each other. Stupid as may be, I thought she would wait just like I would. “
“Ever since end of last year, I started to see her posts with another guy. Apparently she seemed to have started dating another person. In my heart, I secretly hoped her relationship would end so that I would be given another chance. “
“Honestly I cried, knowing that my first love is now with someone else. Selfish of me, I actually was rather unhappy that she seemed as happy as then when we dated. Recently valentines’ day just passed and her newest post with the new guy, makes me tear up all over again. “
“I don’t know how I can make myself move on… like it’s been 2 years since we “broke up” and I should have moved on but I don’t know why I haven’t… my friends told me to go out, and meet some new girls on dating apps but somehow I couldn’t bring myself to use the apps…“
“Really needs some advice here!“
