- NEW!
We were each others first serious relationships (since we were 16). We were together for 6 years, he wanted to propose soon, get married and we were about to sign of a house. He was always this perfect guy that did everything for me to make me happy. Then we started not setting time just for ourselves, a few days ago he ended it saying he wanted to be free of commitment and enjoy his youth. Said there was something wrong when we couldn't even put the effort in for ourselves. We worked alot, came home, went to sleep to try and save but its only been like this for a few months. Is that enough to wipe out six years? A few hard months for many many years fulled of happiness??? He even said the most hurtful thing, maybe "mess around" with other people!!! That basically done it for me. He said he didn't want to lie and be honest and didn't want to do this to me a few years down the track. He said he doesn't think he loves me that same way anymore and I think he wants that passion in our first year which I think is unrealistic as love changes and evolves, and I love him sooo dearly despite what he's done.
I know I deserve someone who loves me back but how do I cope? We have the exact same friends, I am EXTREMELY close to his mother and everything in my teenage years involved him. I can also understand that he is thinking "what if..." and I have also thought the same occasionally but always looked at him and was beyond in love, so what was the point in thinking that. I just thought he felt the same. Everyone thinks he is making a horrible mistake and giving up so much.
How do I cope?

It is hard but understand he is not the same person he was when you two got together and neither are you! People change overtime and hopefully after the initial pain fades away you will find that you are also happier and better off. Its far better to come to this realization now then after you are married or end up having a child.
Good luck!

22 is too young to obligate yourself to anything permanent.
Go find yourself first.
Then decide.

It isn't easy but you can do it. Take one day at a time and start to focus on yourself and your happiness.

We broke up more than a year ago. He's already dating someone else. I keep thinking about the day we broke up and what he said to me.
