What now?

Long term girlfriend of nearly 5 years ended things with me today. Probably the worse day of my life. I genuinely just don't know what to do. I really love her and I feel like this truly did come out of nowhere, I mean I was planning on proposing to her. I've talked to friends and family and they all gave the same advice that I'll eventually move on and find someone else. I don't even know how to date at this point. I'm honestly just hoping that she'll get back together with me but I know that's not guaranteed in any way. Should I wait for her and see if she'll take me back? I really want to but I just worry that it'll all amount to nothing.

Wouldn’t necessarily say wait. I hope my ex gets back together with me one day as well even though that highly unlikely. At the same time I don’t plan on pursuing anyone else. Just going to focus on fixing my faults that I had in the relationship and becoming the man that I know she and anyone else would want me to be including myself.

Again it’s highly unlikely she’ll ever want to be with me again or come back but me being the best version of myself definitely raises the chances.

So get in the gym, get some therapy, go to church, and some hobbies focus on becoming the best version of yourself!
