So the boyfriend and I after 5 & a half years broke up. He was my first 'love' and I honestly feel like I'm losing my mind.

I'm having a VERY hard time dealing with it. I feel sick to my stomach most of the time and all I've been doing is crying.

I feel so lost and empty inside, I just don't know to cope.

It doesn't help that I'm still staying here with him (More so because I don't have anywhere else to go, So he said I could stay until i can get my own place) but just being here is making it so much harder and I don't really have any other options right now.

Ohh Patricia!! Im so sorry, if you need to talk pm me

[S. Lisa Smith]

I'm so sorry! I know it is hard and having to stay at his place is terrible! Things will get better. We're here for you!

[Marisol]

I am so sorry Patricia. We are all here if you need someone to talk to.

Oh Im so sorry you are going through this. I am going through the same thing pretty much, we had been together 2 years. We didn't live together though and that must be so hard. I know since hes right there you just have so many things you want to say or do, but Id think keeping to yourself and thinking as much as you can being in the same place, would be best till you get yourself together.

It will probably be awhile before you know which way things will go, thats how it is with me right now, we are friends, and we talk, its all really confusing still because we don't know whats going to happen. I know its hard but take it day by day, try to go out with friends, and stay strong. In my case, it was my fault it ended, was this breakup your fault, his, or mutual?

And if you guys really love each other, don't give up hope that it might bring you back together. My bf told me he had no more feelings for me and I should give up. But the next day I called him and the day after that we got together, and he admitted he did still have feelings for me, and he was glad I called. I dont mean to ramble but its a confusing time. I know it sounds cliche but its helped me to think that Ive set what I love free for now, and it will come back if its meant to be. If not we both have to keep our heads up and know people are there for us. Plus your totally gorgeous, you shouldn't have any trouble lol. Come and talk about it some more if youd like, we're always listening here.

Oh my goodness. You poor thing. I can't even imagine being with someone for 5 years and it coming to an end. And especially having to stay with him until you find somewhere else to go. Honey, I hope you can find your inner strength and find a way to get through this.

I guess you could say the breakup was both of us but more his.

Ooooohhhh,

I'm sorry to hear luv. It'll get better soon.

Awww girl I feel your pain I really do . May I ask why you guys are breaking up? Poor thing, but you can get through this. Break ups are so rough tho !. Hope all works out ! Keep us updated.

[Killah Kitty]

Oh you know advice someone gave me, if it just isnt looking up, try to look at all the bad things about it, things he didnt do for you, things he did that annoyed you, and go do stuff he didnt want to, like go out for dinner with a friend somewhere he didnt like but you did.

I know it may sound stupid, I thought it was too at first, and you feel lost with all that freedom, but honestly it starts to feel nice after a little bit.

Well I hope things look up for you, maybe you guys are willing to work on it. Best of luck, its my first serious break up too, and its soo rough I know.

[CellyCell]

Oh crap, Trish. That sucks major ass. And on top of that - you two live together.
Ay yi yi.

Not to get too personal if you don't mind me asking, you don't have to answer, but why you two broke it off? Mutual decision?

I dunno what to say in these situations but I know it hurts like hell! I can't even imagine in your situation... I think I'd be boozed up or something all day. Ha. Go emo and listen to Celine Dion.

Feel better, dearest. Want a copy of my Celine compilation?
Muah ha.

[Saje]

I'm so sorry to hear that. Just know that time heals all wounds. You may feel in the dumps now but it will get better.

<3

Oh you poor girl, that would be horrible. I hope you can get your own place soon.
