i may sound stupid or pathetic for crying and being depressed over this. But I can't stop missing my boyfriend. I'm currently laying in bed crying my eyes out feeling that pain in my stomach tears that I've been holding in all day to release at night. I have this hole inside me that can only be fixed by him. I can't feel better. I've tried and I've tried and I just can't get him out of my head. I literally feel the emptiness inside throughout the day without his texts or calls or without him being with me. I feel like I've hit Rock bottom.

Oh boy, break ups are the worst, the worst, but I promise you you will feel better.

It's important to be very proactive about your HEALING though.

You must honour your hurt and pain, however, do NOT for one second think you will not make a connection in this domain again, you will. You just got to let time pass to put the relationship in a greater context of your life/evolution.

Break ups are very painful. You need to allow yourself time to grieve the loss of him being in your life. Try to think positive and spend your time with people who are positive. Take this time to connect with friends doing things you like to do. Stay involved in activities. These things will help you to take your boyfriend off your mind for a while.

I understand when you say you have this empty feeling that can only be fixed by him. It's the worst pain because you can't do anything about it.

You are not alone. I also feel so dumb for having this painful feeling I have when he's not around anymore. I have a mind that develops more negative thoughts then positive. Even when he's here I'm always afraid that he will leave or he is doing me wrong. It's sad because without trust how can you ever make a realtionship work? We have this weird draw to one another and I still haven't figured out how to let go. Without him I get pain in my chest and every part of me feels like it no longer functions. He is my first love. And my first heart break.
It's hard to understand how they can still be around yet you can feel so much pain.
We will get through this, it'll just take a lot of time and a lot of self love
