Dumpers, how long did it take for you to miss them or get grief, if at all?
For those of you who did have this happen, just want to know the timeline. Let’s say you dumped them/blocked them…was it a week? A month? A year?

Super ashamed of myself...last week my ex-situationship blocked me everywhere. Yesterday I unfortunately broke no contact.
I want to say we are both toxic, but I am not innocent. She separated from her ex husband last year and I got divorced 4 years ago.
Anyways we were talking, long distance, and met up several times. I really care for this person.
Last week we began arguing and I got triggered because she told me she isn't ready for a relationship. Before you go all in on me, I now realize that was perfectly fine and I was being insecure, insensitive, pushy, etc. From my point of view, I liked her so much I was wanting a relationship so badly.
Anyways, she was being a bit rude, or at least that's how I took it. I blocked her for like 10 minutes to cool down. Then unblocked her (see the toxicity here). I didn't even check social media anymore so I could cool down.
The next day I noticed I was blocked everywhere, which I totally understand. Unfortunately we have both done something similar for a day or two. This time around, however, she left me blocked. I was respecting the block for an entire 7 days until yesterday where I caved in and went to the lowest of the low, sending her paragraphs about how much I care about her, love her, miss her, and even sent an audio and a photo of myself.
I now realize how stupid and immature and pathetic this was, but I unfortunately cannot take it back. What I told her was the truth, but I just realize how stupid it is to circumvent a block. When someone blocks you they basically want nothing to do with you, and I went against that and humiliated myself further.
I don't even know where to go from here on out besides not contacting her again. I was in a severe state of depression and anxiety when I did this. And I am still depressed. She didn’t care at all to give a single reply. And I don’t blame her. I asked her to never reach out again, right? But I said it out of anger. And I regret it. I didn’t mean it at all. Well she took it to heart and it’s entirely my fault.
I really don't know how to function anymore. We were together for 10 months and since last week all has gone down hill and I'm distraught. Although she seems to be fine and happy, as if all is normal.
I guess my heart doesn't function that way, because I've been an absolute mess, to the point where I can't even pretend to be normal.
I'm going to delete my social media off my phone so as to not look at it, but I am actually suffering inside so much. I cannot imagine a future without her because all I wanted in my future was her. I did not even grieve my marriage to this extent. I'm so hurt and just don't know how to push forward.
I've fallen into a deep depression because of this...
I'm going to make a long story short, but she was getting out of a marriage for several months already, and I had already been out of mine for 4 years. She reached out and treated me like I was her love, telling me she loves me and cares about me. We were long distance but met up and also kept talking on the phone. I helped console her when her parent passed away. We were working on ways to move closer and not be long distance. She even met my child, as I'm a single dad...
Out of the blue, she started telling me she doesn't think she wants a relationship but that she cares about me. The odd thing is, rather than fight it, like I did once before, I said okay. I agreed, we can work on things slowly and maybe one day, but no pressure... Then she changed the topic and started saying I was smothering her and it was all just too much... and I'm like? We barely text because you're busy, then on the weekends you're busy, and now I'm too much? I scaled it down quite a bit... so I stupidly sent her a message saying I didn't appreciate her starting this conversation literally while I was at my child's graduation! And told her to leave me alone, etc. Well, she blocked me. A month goes by, and I noticed she unblocked me. I missed her so bad the entire time and friend-requested her again, which I shouldn't have done. She started writing to me asking why I'm "in and out of her life," to which I said, you are the one who wanted me gone, right? She changed the topic in regards to the graduation conversation and started complaining about something else. I said, if you felt smothered, you could tell me so, and we could establish boundaries to work through it. It's all about communication.
This time, I messed up. I proceeded to block her because she kept disrespecting me and typing in all caps. I left it alone and unblocked her literally within 10 minutes. Well, guess what, she blocks me permanently on all platforms and left it like that for over a week now.
But I acknowledged whatever faults and shortcomings I had to work on, whereas I never felt heard or listened to when I would explain how I felt... I realize this was all so toxic and not as nice as it started, but I also felt like this was all because she was secretly talking to her ex-husband again. Which, according to her, isn't true... but he was still on her Facebook reacting to each status. At the end of it all, we went from telling each other we love each other to "idk what this was," and eventually me getting blocked.
So I don't know the truth, and I really don't think sharing this story may have been very helpful, but I'm seeking advice. I am super distraught and hurt by this. I really saw a future with this woman and adored her deeply. But it seems like none of this was reciprocated. After 10 months, she didn't even tell her mom about me, which I was upset about.
All this to say, it's been a week now and I'm really, truly suffering. I want some advice on how to deal. I have work next week and I cannot even focus. I worked out today to try to calm the pain and was almost ready to have a full-on breakdown. I miss and care about this person, but it's all one-sided, and I'm the villain whose permanently blocked now.
I think my system is heavily dysregulated because I'm no longer functioning or able to do basic tasks. I have been so super depressed. I think I just realized this lady used me to get over her ex-husband and is possibly back with him? Why else would the guy still be reacting to EVERY status she makes on FB? But I'm blocked like absolute trash, all because I eventually wanted to have a future with her.
I'm already 100% isolated in life, and with being a single dad, this hurts extremely bad. I don't even have it in me to "improve" anymore. There's no more improvement to be made. I have done everything I could, and this was supposedly going to be the best chapter after the horrible downfall of my marriage, but now look... I really am shocked that this lady who acted so innocent, wholesome, professional, and family-oriented can just put me on block like a wholeheartedly evil individual, something I never saw from her. I'm really sick to the bottom of my stomach and cannot get over this.
That schedule is my limitation so I can’t change it.
I’m applying to an LVN program because it seems it’s the only thing I can find that will allow me to keep the schedule yet take classes.
Are there any other programs that you know that are ADN-RN or BSN that allow for this schedule?
Otherwise I’ll just stick to my local school…
I don’t know why but I have a big impulse to do this. I’m hurting so bad I can’t handle it anymore. I just wanna forget it all happened. My heart has literally sank into my chest.
I’ve been seeing ads on FB for 200 mg Modafinil. Sounds good and requires a prescription but apparently they’ll set an apt for you. Hypothetically if I was prescribed this, would it even be safe? My question is centered mostly around the safety of this, as I have no idea about it.
Is it bad if I use it often?
Sometimes I scan items when going out to eat with coworkers. I always just accept what it gives me after writing a brief description. What’s the best practice here?
If they go out to eat often and I use photo AI often, could it be that I’m off base with my macro tracking?
Most of these restaurants have no calorie information.
Do you know how miserable being a human being is with zero social interaction? I feel like I’m trapped in hell. My last straw was pathetically reaching out to old friends via Facebook. Nothing works.
I’ve found ZERO love interest.
Nobody wants a single guy with zero family and zero connections anywhere.
I’m sick of being alive. I have been doing this shit for over 3 decades. And I have experienced social isolation for a very long time. It’s not like I haven’t tried. People have families. People have connections rooted from where they grew up. Well established ones. I have NONE OF THAT. It does not get better. And I’m sick of waking up the next day pretending it’ll be different.
I’m in my mid-30’s. After my divorce with my narcissistic ex wife years ago, my life has never been the same. I’ve lost a parent and besides having sole custody of my child have gone 100% into isolation mode. I’m super lonely. Tried making friends at work but it’s all superficial. I also tried dating. I had two girls I really like both reach out to me. Both ended terribly. I felt like I didn’t do anything wrong but maybe I was the common denominator and this the problem. Both reached out to me with many similarities but a few differences.
Girl #1 and I communicated for about 9 months. She would tell me she loves me even though it was long distance and we were working on logistics of being together and making it work. Then she suddenly at the end brings up how it’s pointless since we are long distance. I’m like? Yeah but that’s why we are gonna make it so that we move together right? Weren’t we taking action on this? Then she would ALWAYS be busy and so I’d back off so as not to be annoying. I’d send her minimal texts throughout the day, including weekend. I would barely do anything because she always kept repeating she’s busy. Well she said I smothered her like her ex husband would and that she doesn’t want a relationship. I’m like dude, 9 months and you’re now telling me I’m smothering you when we talk but you don’t want a relationship? I heard her thoughts but she did not acknowledge mine at all, and eventually just stonewalled me and blocked me everywhere.
Girl #2 and I was just a few days. But we had two calls: one was 1 hr and the other just 15 min in a lunch break. She told me she wanted to keep talking to me but she’s just super busy with her business. I told her I understand. Well I let days go by and she would never write to me, not even to say good morning. Yet somehow whenever I’d post a story on FB, she’d heart it. She would be on social media a lot but was too busy for us to talk. This time after a horrible experience from the first one, I didn’t even end things with this one. I just unfriended her everywhere and deleted her number. She also asked me how we are gonna move together as well then never even talks after.
I’m super lonely and feel like I have a problem. Maybe I’m too boring or ugly. Or maybe since I’m in isolation they can’t imagine a life with me.
It just makes me sad thinking about.
Everyone tells me to stay away from it as it’s unhealthy. But then I see doctors online say it’s healthy?
Also, I’m trying to do OMAD; so if there’s any easy way to embed carnivore with OMAD, That would be great.

I want to find the best window I can that gets the benefits of fasting but also allows me to eat 160g of protein daily. I tried OMAD but couldn’t fit it in one meal. It was just too much too soon. Do you guys recommend 20-4? Or 18-6?
This girl and I talked for 3 days before she started telling me she’s super busy etc. never reached out or replied to my texts ever again. It’s been about 4 days now. But since she liked and hearted photos and stories of mine on social media. So I guess I’m ghosted on text but she’s still hearting my content? What do these signals mean?
I’m in Texas, San Antonio for that matter. I’m trying out the carnivore diet. My diet is mainly gonna consist of meat and I’m trying my damndest not to eat out anymore. I went to Walmart and bought ground beef but it was super expensive for the tiny amount I got. Is there somewhere I can get a decent size for not too expensive? Idc about grass fed or not. Mostly looking for good quality and 90-10 or maybe 80-20 etc.
I desperately hate any job having to do with sitting at a desk. Being on my feet for all of the day or part of the day would be ideal for me.
I work in accounting and it’s been the most irritating experience of my life. I hate accounting with a passion and the personalities I’ve run across from the last 4 jobs I’ve held is really a true sign that I’m not a good fit.
I’m considering applying for a 3 semester LVN program and would love your thoughts.
I’m a single parent and would have to utilize an evenings and weekend program which I’ve found locally.
I really like science and have taken several courses. To me it’s not even studying, it’s just interesting.
Would love to know your thoughts? I can’t go straight to an ADN program since I need to work.
I’d love to leave my current job today if I could.
Any career changers here? How do you like nursing?
Curious if any of you all track macros and do. Outbuilding with OMAD?
I wanna do OMAD but also need to figure out the logistics of it all.
No matter what, I always get ghosted. I have been in several relationships in my younger years. No matter what I try… How much effort I put in…The end result is getting ghosted.
Recently this girl reached out and we were going back and forth. Within 2 days, she started barely continuing to talk and then said she’s very busy due to her business and completely faded away.
Whatever the case or reason may be, I guess I’m the problem as it always happens. I’ve never had it not happen.
I’ve got a LONG way to go, but I’m trying to think ahead. Currently about to start an LVN program. So it will be a while before I
I’m applying for LVN program this spring. Once things are all said and done do they help you get a job? Or that’s like my current career in business where everything was solo for job hunting?
