When I was 20, my girlfriend that I had been with for 3 years dumped me. It crushed me. I felt like a shell of a man. I had no appetite, I was plagued by insomnia, and all I could think about was how to get back with my ex girlfriend.
At the time, I had no strategy for how to get over a breakup. It was hard for me to concede that any thing to do with the relationship ending had been my responsibility, and by condemning my ex for all of it, I ruined any hope of getting her back.
Take this opportunity to learn from my error. Rebuilding your relationship with your ex starts with you assuming responsibility for the part you played in the breakup. Buck up and take responsibility for where you screwed up, and take the steps necessary to show your ex that you deserve her. If your pride won’t allow for that, the relationship apparently isn’t as important to you as you’re pretending it is.
