    Wow what incredible timing to be finding this thread. I’ve never googled relationship regrets, and here is a post started 4 years ago that has just recently been reactivated! I relate so much to so many of your stories. Mine sounds a bit crazy as my relationship was only a few months long and I ended it over 3 years ago. Similar to Elle, he was so good to me, we got along very well, had the same interests, morals, and values. However I  was always questioning  the relationship and felt he was more into it than I was. I was in a point in my life where I wanted to travel and work and not be tied down and we just weren’t in the same place.

    It took me almost a year to realize I regretted my decision of breaking up, but usually I’ve been able to put it out of my head and move on. I  was just recently thinking about him and checked his instagram, and saw that he is now engaged. For the last few days I can’t stop crying and have ever felt regret like this before. I feel like I’ll never find anyone like him again and am so angry with myself for not seeing all the good things we had at the time.

    I tend to get very irritable in relationships and I don’t know why. Very similar to Brynna I am also an environmentalist and get very depressed over the state of the world. Once I’m in the comfortable stage of a relationship, I tend to pay less attention to my partner as I am too busy dwelling with other stuff.

    Anyway, maybe it’s this quarantine that has everyone remeniscing, but it’s so strange to suddenly be so hurt and feel so much loss over someone I broke up 3 years ago.

    It is giving me some relief reading everyone’s stories and knowing I’m not the only one going through this. Also hearing how others have healed and it can happen. Im sure the decision to break up at the time was the right one, but it’s hard convincing yourself that during a time like this when everything in life is so uncertain.
