A guy shared how he thinks he fgured out why his girlfriend dumped him, that it was because she hasn’t partied enough and wants to be young, wild and free.
Here is the story
I think I figured out why gf (22) dumped me.
She said, she wanted a break (I declined) because she hasn´t partied enough, wasn´t spontaneous enough, didn´t travel enough, hasn´t been single for long and needed to feel free.
She also said she was worried she was gonna miss out on being young and wild and all that.
Well I recently discovered FOMO (fear of missing out) and I think it fits this situation pretty well. Happens a lot from what I´ve read online.
Plus near the end she was meeting a lot of new people, who were pretty much all single, sleeping around shamelessly, clubbing all the time and I think she just started to crave the same.
AND when we met (2.5 year long relationship) she was kinda fat, which I didn´t mind at all, but throughout the relationship, she started to work out a lot, watched what she was eating and she lost a lot of weight, became hotter and I think she was getting more male attention, which I´m pretty sure she enjoyed.
Is it FOMO or am I missing something?

Often when we’re grieving, we try to figure out why something painful happened because we think it understanding it more will make it hurt less. It doesn’t. Unfortunately it is a cruel reality of this world that we can not control anybody but ourselves, people can break up with us for any reason they choose, and no amount of logic can bring back feelings once they’re gone.
Get out of your head, go do something nice for yourself. You can only control yourself, and you can only truly know what you are thinking at a given moment. And that’s plenty.
