Not getting over it, maybe is quarantine?

I feel I'm in a loop. 7 months after he broke up with me, and still thinking about him most of the day. Having a toxic parent who is controlling doesn't help either. I feel really lonely. Just wanted to find someone who can truly understand me.

Hugs my friend. You are young and so much ahead of you. You have to learn to be your own best friend. Learn to love and appreciate the awesome you. Go to school online if you have to. You will be alright. Yes, it is this virus that is making it hard. Give yourself time to heal. Having a controlling parent is not helping. I know, I had one of those too. Have you gotten in touch with a therapist. If not, do so. You need one. I had one for several years when I was going through the divorce from hell. They are a lifeline. Can you talk to your mother or peers. Please be gentle with yourself. And cry all you want I did. Stay strong and safe.

Hello VisasGallia,

I feel for you deeply in so many ways. I have been in similar shoes as you are now. I can't say the "same" shoes as every experience is different. But I can offer you an ear. I can also relate ad one of my sons is in the range of your age. He is 20. I have a protective heart as a parent. But also a listening earing as a woman. He shares with me the thoughts his shared age group offer and we often discuss the difficulties he and others like him face in building mature relationships. Not everyone matures at the same rate. For goodness sake I am 45 and my ex fiancé and I were certainly not on the same page.

I share all of this to say,.. love yourself. Give time and energy to explore what you like, think, don't like... what hurts you... everything. When something doesn't feel right, give yourself the opportunity to explore why. All the answers aren't there yet. Life is always shifting and so we truly never have all the answers. But if you learn to love yourself and have an empathetic ear, a clear conscious and a pure perspective... you will be well on your way to finding real connections.

You can find your way through this and be stronger for it all. Sending love and respect...

7 months isn't long, although it sounds it. My wife told me she was divorcing me 7 1/2 months ago, and it is still early days. Loneliness is so hard to bear, but keep on being true to yourself.

    I had gone to the grocery store.  When I wheeled my cartback to my car I just stool there a minute.  A few spacesaway a Tesla Cyber truck was parked.  I had seen it on theroad a few times for a few seconds.  But not close up.It looked like it belonged to 2126 and not 2026.  I wasgoing to take a picture of the car but the owners cameback and drove away.  It was an ordinary middle age...
