Wow, as I read your post I immediately looked to see the day if was posted making sure it’s not from like 2011 lol

 

The exact same thing happened to me recently, like eerily so. My fiance and I broke up last April.

 

We lived in ATL and dated for about 3 years when the corporate company announced the office was moving up to Cincinnati, Ohio.

I had family in Chicago but we didn’t know a soul in Ohio. We came look at houses in December 2015 and we we’re living in Cincinnati a month later. In between this time we had found a small old house in the same town as his office (which I also started working for when we moved up)

Our friends and family threw us a goodbye party which is when he proposed. We had gone threw the same issue with porn early on in our relationship and it destroyed the very little self esteem and self confidence I had, something that I still battle today.

We hadn’t planned anything in terms of a wedding, we made excuses like just getting used to uprooting our lives, money, etc. But in the end I ended up getting in trouble April 2017, which is when we broke up.

 

The first 2 weeks I was literally in mourning, just over the relationship, even though I knew it was the right decision for both of us.

After that, it got better and our lease was up in June and we moved to separate apartments, 3 blocks away from each other in Cincinnati.

We still worked at the same  company which I knew was the start of a career for me which was the first thing that went well for me besides him. Ultimately, I got laid off in October 2017.

I just recently started a new job and I can tell you I know exactly how you feel and can relate on every level!

Oh, and I’m 26 lol

If you ever want to talk, I’m always always here!

You got this girl, stay strong!
