Reply to comment by DistraugtlyDistractd in I (22M) broke up with my gf (f21) and I wanted to text her one last thing by [deleted]

Then it's already on her and she knows that.

Move on mate.

This will rub salt in her wounds and leave you waiting and angsty for a response that may likely never come.

Leaving the porch light on is one thing, but this is like leaving the door wide open after kicking someone out, it sends totally mixed messages and it's just going to cause more hurt.

Let it go, move on.

We did end things on a good note. I said pretty much the same thing, I broke it off because I didn't feel like she prioritized me and was distancing herself from me. We wouldn't go on dates and when I was down visiting her she spent some of the time with some guys besides me on my last day at her university.

I said I want someone who is stoked to see me and chooses me first over some other guys. She said she felt the same way about breaking up for a while, we talked some more and she said hopefully when the time is right we will be back together and that there is a good chance we will get back together. We both said I love you, hugged, I gave her a last kiss, and left. I am just hurting now man, I know this isn't a good idea, but I just wish we didn't have to break up.

Sigh.

I know that pain all too well man, it sucks.

But it sounds like it was mutual and that you both have said all you need to say. Look I totally understand wanting to reach out that one last time, really I do... but it doesn't bring the closure you think it does, trust me.

One day at a time, bro, just keep going.
