I just broken up.....she said she has no feel anymore. After some attempts to ask her to stay, I think I accepted the fact to let her go although I still think of her.

But I can't help but pondering about the question of whether I did my best when she said she has no feel. I felt like I did my best for the relationship but somehow I have this lingering feeling I did not. For the past few days, I keep looking back at all the things I did, the gifts I gave, the places I took her, the shoulder to cry on, playing the nurse while she was sick, fetching her, helping her....felt like I did but somehow, I keep feeling I could have done more. More to tug at her heart. More to keep the sparks going. I even asked her, did I let you down? She said no - I did my best just she has no feel anymore. She even said she tried to keep the relationship alive but just no sparks and she gave up. With all that she said, somehow I still feel I could have saved it. Felt like I needed just one more chance. I know this question probably cannot be answered. Quoting Searizeel, this is one of the "inponerable" question. But just wondering how you guys or girls get thru this. I know I sound unsure and maybe blaming myself, but I just need to let it out of my mind.

Hey man, I know that feel. You did everything you could and it still wasn't enough. You're thinking all the time spent, all the deeds and favors, never once you asked for anything in return except for her to feel the same about you. These things happen but don't let yourself down. You did what you could, if it wasn't enough, its not your loss. All relationships come to a stage where there aren't any sparks left, its really up to the couple to reignite the sparks and it looks as though she does not want to try any more than necessary. What do you think caused this to happen? When you said it can be saved, what did you have in mind?

I used to think the same but when I gave it serious thought, there was not much I could have done to save my own relationship. "She" does not want more. You can't force it either. There isn't a perfect way of getting over a broken relationship. Its been 2 months for me and it still feels like it just happened yesterday. Over time, you'll cope with the feeling of her not beside you. Its not a good feeling cos' it reminds you how much you've done and how much the relationship meant to you.

If it's not mutual, there is nothing to blame yourself over. It will end eventually, only a matter of time. Give yourself a chance to find someone more worth it. Someone who wouldn't just up and go when there are no sparks anymore. Sparks don't happen alone, it can only happen when there are 2 people.

Yeah, you said many things right. I don't know what caused this to happen. I am not sure if I was the cause??? That's why I asked her if I let her down, and she said no. And I asked her why then? Why let go?? She just said no more feelings. To be fair, she said she tried for the past few months to love me as before but she said it doesn't feel the same anymore and she couldn't force herself. All along I didn't know how she felt. She never mentioned anything. We were still holding hands and hugging like a couple. Until a month ago. The signs start to show up then, I guess. Whatsapp late response, phone calls sometimes never call back, 2-3 days without contact, when contact always seem like in a rush or just short answers yes/no/ok/sure. That's when I started to feel something amiss. So I asked her for some time to sit down and talk. Then I found out. And then, she just say she wants to move on. I just feel that if I known how she felt, she talked about it earlier and gave ourselves a chance, maybe things can work out. Not like this.....

hey, what happened to you, which exactly happened to me, two months ago. saying no more sparks, start to give cold respond.
the feelings is not same anymore... no more phone calls, text msg become less and lesser.
your wound is still fresh, mine even after 2 months, i still feel the pain. the process is not easy, but you need to go thru it.

Hi, is okay, just express what you want to say. is actually very hard and suffer to keep in your heart.
no one knows who you are here, you can say things you wish to.

she still keep in touch with you? or none at all?

take good care. we still have very long way to go, to overcome the sadness.

just let her go bah bro..

remind this passenger's song, let her go

of the part of meaning

Well you only need the light when it's burning low
Only miss the sun when it starts to snow
Only know you love her when you let her go

Only know you've been high when you're feeling low
Only hate the road when you’re missin' home
Only know you love her when you let her go
And you let her go

Hi Hollow21,

I just want to let you in on one probable perspective your
ex may have had for your entire relationship.

And I must say that your situation isn't exactly imponderable.

You see, when a girl;guy;anyone for that matter, leaves you
because sparks die out, they are doing you a final favour out
of love. (or whatever love that was left)

A relationship should be fulfilling for both parties. Not a one-way street.

The sooner you can understand her intentions for leaving you, the sooner
you'll be able to come to terms with her absence in your life.

Also, to smileyee, venting is fine and all, and I agree that we can say whatever
we wish to say here in order to help with coming to terms with the experience
of losing someone important.

But I have to let y'all know that I'm who I am online as I would be in real life.
And that's the reason why my display picture is my real picture.

I don't believe in a life of hiding. If you're gonna live a life, might as well
live a transparent one where you don't have to be afraid of doing what
you want to do. Because you know that if it isn't wrong to do it, there's
nothing to be embarrassed or ashamed for.

Well, just a thought though. Not everybody can do it.

I just personally think it'd be good practice to just be who you are in real life
and not hide behind the cloaks of anonymity. But hey, in the end, it's your
choice. I'm happy the way I am haha.

So do whatever floats your boat everyone.

That's a good song man.

But it also teaches a very good value;
To love someone enough to let the person be free of you.

I've got many personal breakup songs to share, but lets just
say that can come some other time.

Yeah.

Thank you very much for your thoughts and words Searizeel...

Yeah, I think you are right on a few counts. She was cool and rational when she ended it. And she did said there was someone out there better for me, someone who could love me more. And yeah, I suspect it was one sided the last few months. When we are together doing things, she was there but I sense she really wasn't.

I don't know if she ended it out of love. Or she still cares. But I think it doesn't really matter. And yeah, maybe it's good thing she ended it. That's what I have been telling myself for the past 2 days. Indeed, it maybe a good thing after all.

It's a good thing to know that you are coming to terms with it.
But please do bear in mind that certain feelings and emotions
cannot be rushed to go away. So think about getting over it,
but be transparent to yourself about it.

So if you don't exactly feel that it's a good thing she left you;
at least for now, then let your mind run it's course and dwell
into the thought for a bit.

Once your epiphany strikes, the right train of thought will surface
to dispel the "imponderable question" your mind is so fixated about.
And when that happens, you'll experience true self-reconciliation.

The answer won't be clean-cut. But you'll somehow know what it means
to have an answer that isn't fixed, but still certain. It's a little hard to
explain, but when it happens to you, you'll understand.

So don't let me or others tell you that it's a good thing. And don't
cheat yourself into thinking that it's a good thing. The harder you
try to survive on make-believe and pretend, the harder you're gonna
choke, stumble and suffocate.

As if the delirium that comes with breakups isn't already challenging enough.

BUT, if you are really actually coming to terms with it, then good for you.

Hey I know what you are going through , I have been put into that situation once before but maybe not as severe as how you have had it but i know that feeling and I am glad you are holding up. Takes time to get over it and you don't need me to tell you that! Take good care of yourself.
