[L] I ended things with someone who was close to me, and I’m grieving that alone with the things I have been carrying on since childhood.

I ended things with someone who was close to me, and I’m grieving that alone. With the things I have been carrying on since childhood, I feel so overwhelmed. I’m doing everything I can, but I keep going into breakdowns, and it’s really bad since I’m completely lonely. I just wanna feel the peace I felt with them again. I’m doing therapy, but I do it rarely because it’s kinda expensive but god i really need someone to comfort me and make it easy for me. I feel like I lost a huge part of myself, and I don’t have anyone IRL to talk to or take advice from. I really need an adult +25 who I can trust and consult them with things in my life just for guidance.

25F looking for genuine long-term connections (25-30)

Hey everyone! I’m 25 and looking to build true, long-term friendships with people around my age group (**strictly 25-30**).
❌ **Strictly Platonic:** I am ONLY looking for platonic friendships. **I am NOT looking for romance, dating, or anything of that sort.** Please do not reach out if you have other intentions.
Here’s a bit about me and what I enjoy:
• **Hobbies:** Video games, watching shows/movies, music, and diving into psychology.
• **Vibe:** Huge on personal growth! I love sharing knowledge, discovering new perspectives, and learning from one another.
**What I’m looking for:**
• **Honesty is a must:** I have absolutely zero tolerance for lying, dishonesty, or fake personas. **If I catch you lying or acting shady/suspicious, you will be blocked instantly.** No second chances.

• **Grounded & Secure:** I don't have the time or energy for big egos or paranoia. If I ask you a question, it's just to get to know you or for my own safety/comfort as we build trust—so please don't take it the wrong way or act superior.

25F- first time going through something like this

So the guy I have been talking to things with, he drifted away every day for the past 4 months, and I ended things with him. It’s been 14 days since the last time we talked, and I removed him 6 days ago. We only know each other online, but we were intimate with each other, and he really cared about me when I needed him. However, he changed 2 months ago and started to spend less time with me, or just by being distant. I know I don’t want him back, but fighting this alone with no friends is really hard since it’s my first time experiencing such a thing. I just need friends to help me with this situation because I’m lonely. I have no one close, and I’m really lost sometimes. I’m scared I might go crazy and text him out of nowhere, but I want to move on. I don’t want him anymore. I want to be better, but he was a huge part of my life, and I feel this void, and it’s sooooo lonely sometimes. I feel like it’s impossible to survive it. Idk if he was playing with me because I was so guarded and I didn’t believe him for a long time with anything and he tried really hard to prove to me that his feelings for me are real and he even said “I love you” after 3 months but I didn’t say it back and I never did idk if everything he said was true but sometimes it felt true because he did things that a person who cares would do but again idk if it’s all true because it’s my first time experiencing such a thing with a guy and I don’t have any experience in relationships. I just need all the help I can get, and I would really love it if I had girlfriends. It would help me a lot. I just need people older than 25 who I can talk to when I think about the whole thing again. I come from a closed religious society that doesn’t talk openly about relationships so I would appreciate all the help I can get.

I (25F) am feeling completely lost and lonely after ending things with a guy (34M) I talked to online for 4 months. How do I survive this void?

I (25F) have been talking to a guy (34M) online for about 4 months. We never officially labeled what we had, but we were intimate, and he really cared about me when I needed him. Since it was my first time experiencing anything like this with a guy, I was very guarded and didn't believe him for a long time. He tried really hard to prove his feelings and even said "I love you" after 3 months, but I never said it back.
About 2 months ago, he completely changed and started being distant, and things just drifted away every day. I finally made the decision to end things. It’s been 14 days since we last talked, and I removed him 6 days ago.
I know deep down I don't want him back, but fighting this completely alone with no friends is so hard. He was a huge part of my life, and now I feel this terrifying void and intense loneliness. Sometimes it feels impossible to survive. I keep questioning everything—idk if he was just playing with me or if his feelings were real, because sometimes it truly felt real.
I come from a closed, religious society where we can't talk openly about relationships, and I have no one close to turn to. I’m so scared I might go crazy and text him out of nowhere, but I just want to move on and be better.
I really need advice, support, or just to hear from girlfriends (preferably older than 25) who can help me navigate this situation when I start overthinking everything again.
TL;DR: I (25F) ended a 4-month unlabeled online relationship with a guy (34M) after he became distant. It's my first experience, I have no friends to talk to due to my conservative society, and I'm struggling with an intense void and fear of breaking no-contact. Looking for advice and support to move on.

I don’t think I miss you or hate you; it’s just emptiness inside me when it comes to you, and it’s a good feeling. I don't know what happened between us that made you change and not keep your promises and words, even though the first thing you told me about yourself was that you're a man of your words. I didn’t ask for the care or the love you gave me, and sometimes I ask myself: was it even true, or were you just performing?

And sometimes I think there were moments where you really cared, but I don’t question that anymore because I genuinely don’t care anymore. You wanted to know my problems and wanted me to open up to you; you were there for me, but you distanced yourself over time, even though I didn’t share my problems and only thought about my life sometimes, but still, you asked me to do so.

You started saying things that did push me away, even though I'm seeking professional help, and I didn’t reach out a lot to you, and I have other friends. You told me you loved me a month ago and that you wanted to experience things with me, spend more time with me, and share your thoughts and what happens in your day with me, but none of that happened because it was all just words and empty promises.

You told me that you are here when I struggle, and you don’t run from my struggles, and you'll stick by me because you want to help me. You said that you are always going to be here, and you promised you won’t leave me so many times over months, but again, it was all nothing, and thank God I didn’t expect anything from you. I asked you to promise me that if your feelings changed, you would tell me; you did promise me, but you didn’t care to tell me when they changed.

Honestly, I'm grateful for this whole experience; it made me fall in love with myself even more, and it changed my perspective on so many things. It showed me my truth again and who I really am. It made me appreciate the people in my life even more and realize that they can be here when I need them, because it’s never a hard thing to do, since I'm super self-aware that I don’t want to overwhelm people even when I feel down. It grew so much love and care for the world and myself; I'm so excited to live more, meet amazing people, and share it with them. I feel so much growth and happiness l never felt before in my entire life.
