I def need a man’s opinion cause i’m so lost 😭 last night I broke up with my boyfriend of two and a half months, which was a really weird breakup. He told me that he just ‘lost feelings and didn’t love me the same’, and worst of all is that he’s been-

Are yall younger? 2.5 months to be in love is fast imo. I’d just move on. It takes time to develop something solid

This is weird. First off…promise rings after only 2.5 months is crazy in general. But something’s off here the timeline is weird and his explanation is weak. Honestly probably best this happened and you can now move on and find someone closer

-feeling this way for a month and didn’t tell me. When I asked him if it was a distance thing ( cause we’re cross country distance ), he said no, that it was just his feelings. He told me he had been feeling this was for over a month, and I knew nothing was wrong. We had plans for me to go down to his hometown for Thanksgiving, me moving from Florida to New Mexico so we wouldn’t be long distance, etc., and worst of all yesterday when we broke up HOURS beforehand we had picked out where we were-

Maybe something going on internally with himself, sounds like self sabotage

-gonna get promise rings. I’m so incredible confused by this, does any man here know why we would breakup, for a reason I literally had no idea was coming? Even his best friend who I know didn’t know until literally two hours before, which I think is strange that he didn’t know about him feeling ‘off’ for a MONTH, so I’m just confused

We weren’t planning on actually getting them until Thanksgiving, but yeah 😭 i really wish there WAS more but there isn’t it was so weird, and he kept on saying ‘it wasn’t me’ that made him want to breakup, but when I asked if he cheated he said ‘no that’s immature i would never’, so there’s like genuinely no good reason for the breakup

Well, considering he’s been feeling that way for a month it sounds like it’s been on his mind for a while for whatever reason. You could be totally right and he agrees that yall were really good for each other but whatever was going on in his mind or internally was stronger in the end

Sometimes there isn’t a “good” reason for a breakup. Sometimes it really is as simple as someone changing their mind, or losing feelings. Maybe you guys rushed into things and he doesn’t feel like he’s ready for those commitments.

and that’s fine, i just wish he would’ve told me that, instead of him chasing me for months KNOWING we would be long distance and have a serious relationship, it’s like he made it seem like we were on the same page but i guess not

That timeline is kind of crazy and he was probably freaked out by rushing things. For real, if you were already making plans to move across the country for someone you’ve only been dating a couple months, that’s waaay too early.

It was kinda fast, which I didn’t want to rush into the relationship since my last one that was six months amounted to nothing, but he was the one who proposed i move, we get married within a year, etc. so I felt like we were both on the same page commitment wise

Yall are pretty young for that imo. The brain isn’t mostly developed until you’re 25
