feeling used and stupid

my boyfriend of 6 years broke up with me about 2 weeks ago and its been tough going from being okay to being not so okay.

i know this is bad but i was still logged into his email when he broke up with me and the week he broke it off with me he had made a reservation at the casino hotel..

about 6 months ago he had a severe gambling addiction im talking about going everyday type of thing. to cut a long story short he lost well over 100k, and guess who had to face those consequences? me. and his mom. but me being an idiot helped him with everything i could because in my mind this was the man i was going to have a future with and when he was hurt, i was hurt. so i helped him financially with a lot. he worked his ass off these passed 6 months and i have been keeping him out of the casino but i think that was bothering him. genuinely if he broke up with me BECAUSE of the want to go to the casino im more hurt than what he said was the reason.

he broke up with me out of the blue, at least for me it was. all i have been doing these past few months since that happened is supported him emotionally and financially if he needed something trust me i was there. he tells me he is unhappy with himself and our relationship and i tried so hard to just get him to talk to me but he wouldn't and the last thing i want to do is beg to be loved, even when i feel like i have deserved that love.

i just dont understand how someone can throw away 6 years like its nothing to them, he hasnt even reached out to me and this passed weekend he blocked me on social media, what is the reason? i havent even texted him.

Relationship with family

hi all,

my boyfriend of 6 years broke up with me last week and its been rough to say the least lol. but i have a lot of family who loves me and is supporting me in every way they can and so is my best friend so that has definitely helped.

his family is insaenly important to me his mom was like a 2nd mother to me and i practically lived there and she has only ever shown me love. his sister and her husband recently had a baby and i was there for everything and helped them out with a lot, i alwasy helped his mom with everything cleaning up, paying things, taking her places especially cause he never wanted to.

his family has reached out to me and his sister and her husband have been very very supportive to me and have been so kind even extending invitiations to have lunch with me. his sister invited me to church ( she is very religious and she has never invited me so this is like a oh wow thing for me), and i just wanted to see POV of others

is this inappropriate? it personally makes me feel very loved and seen and cared for and doesn't make me feel worse if anything it makes me feel a bit better knowing people care about me. i would of course never talk to his family if it made them uncomfortable but they are reaching out to me because they know i gave my all into him and them and i just don't know if others would see this as weird because this is my first relationship ever

Hi!!

I got my two left wisdom teeth removed on April 10th. Everything was fine with the bottom one but the top one would not stop bleeding and I ended up having to go back and getting another stitch placed, that was on April 14.

Fast forward to April 18th I sneezed and the bottom stitch just came right out. A day later I laughed really hard at a video and the top one came out (the first one they put) in.

It’s now April 30th and the 2nd stitch I had placed has not fallen out at all. It’s like super loose in there but not coming out.

Should I be concerned or is this normal and I should just leave it to do its thing?
