How do I (16F) soft launch my breakup to the public

Basically I was dating this guy for a year everybody said that we looked so cute together and that we were such a cool couple. It was nice while it lasted but then we had to break up because of some issues. He got increasingly toxic over these past few months and would completely deteriorate my self esteem.

Now that we broke up, I kinda want ppl to know Abt it because I'm moving to a new school and stuff. I just want him in the past. But I DON'T wanna make it obvious that I want them to know, if uk what I'm talking about.

can u guys PLEASE gimme some tips on how to let other ppl know that we broke up. thankss

I (16F) broke up w my 16 M bf

dude I basically broke up w my bf like two weeks ago and I don't miss him one bit sometimes I kinda choke up because I miss the memories but never him. He was a rly nice guy, always complimented me, challenged me and stuff but whenever his ego takes a hit, he spirals off to name calling me, suggesting he's intellectually more superior, and this appalling "debate" tone he always uses to "win" arguments. It's a nightmare talking to him Abt political stuff because he watches the bribed news channels and always supports the side opposing mine. Honestly sometimes I feel like he does it merely to seek attention, stand out from the crowd becuz he always supports the side only a few other ppl do.

Anyways, we broke up right and he's still trying to put a conscious effort to text me and call. He's begging me, saying it will take some time but he'll change. He also brings up these stupid Disney quotes, talking Abt sum we have to go through the tough times together and stuff like that. When I wasn't cooperating, he basically started to imply that I had to deal w this until he changes and gets better BECUZ that's what he has done for me? I asked him when he did that and he mentioned how I didnt rly text him throughout our relationship and he had to cope up w that.

To provide a backstory, I am pretty much an avoidant (or so I've been told). whenever I get too close to someone I still need my space otherwise I JSUT feel congested. During our relationship I texted him around every 4-5 hrs and he responded back within like 2 hrs. I understand the gap is huge and towards the end I acc improved my texting time by a lot. But can u rly equate this to him blatantly disrespecting me and saying he will change likeeee??

when I told him all of these points he was just straight up like "so block me okay? block me on every single platform and cut this call too" and whenever he said that idk I would start to choek up just a lil thinking Abt all the memories UK and without thinking I would say "wait don't go just yet"

Eventually, we didn't block each other, we just stopped texting. atleast I did. last I checked he has sent around 8 VMS each five mins long and 5 missed calls last night. I picked up the first call but it wasn't anyth imp. Mind u we broke up two weeks ago.

so um acc idk what to do how to feel or anyth. Am I weird for not missing him cuz most ppl miss their exes? also I DOTN rly wanna block him and make it a huge deal or anyth cuz I feel like I'm letting go of the memories and they are just so so dear to me even if the person isn't anymore. idk what to do.

I just realized this is more of a rant than questions so dry Abt that lol 😭

16F 16M dating advice

Hey guys so I'm in a bit of a sticky situation I'm a 16F with a 16M as my bf we have been together for a year and we have known that we had a crush on each other for muchhh longer than that so it kinda seemed destined at first but some complications are happening now 😭

so u see we always and I MEAN ALWAYS argue abt this most important political issues LIEK the on going wars, protests and whatnot. I also don't like the fact that he supports celebrities who have extremely sketchy backgrounds consisting of SA and R . I tried to ask him Abt it TDY but he says he believes in redemption and whatnot.

Honestly soemtiems I feel like we always disagree because he just wants to stand out from the crowd and support the side nobody else supports just so that he can seem cool. This is a bit of a stretch ik but it happens way too many times for it to be a coincidence.

Listen, he is a sweet, loving, gallant guy who is respectful and stuff but fighting over such trivial topics??? is that a bad sign??

also he has even admitted this fact: when we argue he doesn't even listen to half the points I AHVE to say he just butts in, trails off and JSUT wants to "win" the argument at all costs. it's honestly extremely exhausting.

At the same time I don't wanna break up with him cuz I feel like if I explain it to him he can change, and I don't wanna feel left out from all the ithers who are in relationships rn and I still wanna do all the lovey dovey cute stuff with him CMONN.

what do u think I should do 😭
