19 F just broke up and I feel so helpless and alone and I am doubting whether I took the right decision or just ran away from a good relationship
Please give me some advice. I am 19F. I posted about this a few days ago. I apologise if this is incorrect but I'm alone right and spiralling and can't do anything at all
I met this guy in March and got into a relationship in April and it is June now. He is the sweetest person who is very thoughtful and loving and communicative and clear.
In fact I think I am not mature enough for relationships and got enamored by the idea. All of this is in the span of two months and the Honeymoon Phase. He is very very supportive and encourages me to study. He loves that I'm so ambitious and driven. So, he isn't a bad person fundamentally.
Basically we moved really fast physically (he has had 2 girlfriends before and is 21 and lost his virginity to the previous one (they moved very very fast) , but it doesn't bother me tbh). I am not saying he forced me to kiss him or anything, but more so that he is familiar with it and I am not so he asked my permission and I'd say no and then he'd back away. But then he'd ask for permission the next day and back away when I said no. However, after a while I kissed him because i wanted to and then after that he does respect when I deny but I'd say that if it were me, I'd have moved a lot slower (we have had steamy makeout sessions I don't want to elaborate, it feels weird). Again I don't regret it, but in retrospect it is weird thinking that I did all of that in the span of a month before vacation began.
And then thing is he does feel a little bad about it sometimes and says that he wished i wasn't so physically conservative but it isn't to make me feel guilty or anything (i have communicated that with him). But, it remains that if it were me, I'd not have kissed him until after 3 months and proceeded a lot more slowly.
And then there is this thing where i don't feel a mental connection with him (we don't have any hobbies in common and he never explored anything because his parents are very strict). But I just don't feel the 'intellectual stimulation' and i am realising i need it form my partner. I am the type who wants to have long philosophical discussions and discuss about a movie I discussed at length and just talk a lot. He is more of a listener.
And then there is this thing about LDR (he'll graduate next year and I'll pursue my PhD after graduating and will try my best to go overseas for pdf as well). Even it is works out I can't do an LDR. I want to experience all of my firsts with someone real, not just pine for someone miles away when there is no tangible plan to close the distance in the beginning. Even in the most ideal scenario I don't want to spend my first relationship and the beginning of twenties in an LDR.
So, I broke up with my boyfriend (and possibly blindsided him) and the last two points were my reason. And he said he can explore his hobbies and that he never has because his parents have never allowed him and that I'm thinking too far into the future about LDR and giving up too easily. I said that if I know I wouldn't get into an LDR when he graduates, there is no point in me trying. And he said I was letting my anxiety overrule everything.
I admit that I probably did get into a relationship too soon (it wasn't for the sake of getting into on though) but if I had a bit of an inkling that the LDR would be so hard for me (we are doing LDR right now during vacation) I would never have gotten into this relationship. I also think I have some sort of avoidant attachment and just deactivated, the intellectual spark was bothering me but it wasn't so huge and I want to work on it because I don't want to give so much pain to anyone I like let alone love.
So, what do I do now? (Please don't tell me I was very immature and stuff, I know I was and I am willing to improve and identify my triggers) but if I break up with him again (if I get back), I'll feel like the shittiest human alive.
I just feel so alone right now because of vacation and I can't confide in my parents because they are quite strict. I don't have any friends I can meet offline and I don't want to bother others by calling them
