“My ex and I also had a ridiculous amount of weird things in common and neither of us had felt a connection like that before.”

EXACTLY!

She even said from day one how she was more comfortable around me than anyone in her entire life.  She felt like she had no insecurities or worries.  She even told me that being with me felt like home.  It was crazy how much we connected on so many levels it was indescribable.

I really do think that it was a combination of all the other drama in her life that made her shut down, and that made me become so insecure and needy.  It was really a perfect storm and neither of us knew how to deal with it.  Unfortunately the things i did and said are things that someone can possibly never get over or past.

When i should of just stepped back, i pushed so hard and assumed so much, then lied and betray her trust that it just was too much for her.  Or at least that’s the impression i got through the messaging we did after we broke up.
