I called it quits with my boyfriend today on a video call. It had been brewing for a while, and the breakup was very amicable. Instead of feeling angry or sad, I actually feel fresh and excited. I think it’s because we got into the relationship very quickly, and I never really got the chance to explore or “play the field.”
First one was reasonably calm. We figured out that it would not work in the long run, cried a bit, and stayed friends for a few years.
Second breakup threw me completely off. I was sad for years, one could use the word depressed but I’ll refrain from doing so unless someone professional issues the diagnose.
