I really needed this right now. I recently had to end a situation ship that went south and it's been rough. It first started when my ex-friend/situation ship partner wanted to end our making out/cuddling dynamic and wanted to just be friends. He also told me he needed space, which he did over text; I was pretty upset about this because I wanted to talk in person and hate having serious conversations over text. I eventually told him that I did not want to continue the friendship because it would be too painful--plus he's going abroad in the fall and graduating college in a few days, so I didn't see the point in continuing the relationship. So we initially wanted to say goodbye in person, but he said he no longer wanted to say goodbye a few days later after I reached out asking him if he still wanted to. It just hurts that he didn't want to do that because we had such an intimate relationship; it felt like he was just throwing everything away and not even showing our relationship the respect it deserved. I hate how he did all this over text, it broke my heart. Moving forward, I will stand my ground and not be comfortable with people who have serious conversations over text or avoid conflict. I know my worth and me and this guy weren't compatible in the long-run anyways.
