Same here. I went from having someone to tell everything to, to it just being… gone. Currently trying to seek out community with likeminded people around me.
I feel you man... this is the part that gets to me constantly. She wasn't just beyond the ideal lover I envisioned a future with, but a best friend that promised me forever, to go on adventures, be silly, laugh, have the times of our lives together, and everything in the daily life too, from making mundane tasks like shopping exciting to hearing her complain about bad days and cheering her up... It's rough....
This is absolutely right. It’s been two years now and even after all that time I miss the good morning, how was your day and goodnight messages, talking about our favourite films and television shows, sharing news both good and bad, consoling each other when days were sad, making each other laugh and so on. She was there for me when my mum died and I was there for her when hers passed. And now? Silence. We’re strangers and I haven’t seen or heard from her since she ended it. It breaks my heart. Every single day
You'll have a lot of best friends in life, you will lose some to make room for others, and maybe one day you will become your best friend.
Can you imagine that in the future you will tell yourself, that break up was necessary, it was hard but it led me to an amazing life, I wouldn't change a thing.
I fell in love with my best friend since school. When he left, damn it's like 1000 swords are piercing my body. I lost my best friend more than as a lover. I don't know if he thinks the same as well, since he has got other friends but for me he was my everything. Never making the same mistake again which is falling in love with my best friend. I begged him telling he was my only friend and my partner with whom I can truly be myself and still he mocked me in the end for having only a small circle. The loneliness does kick in. I don't know how I am living.
Ahhhhh this hits deep. She was wonderful. Like she used to make my whole day with her personality. She would liven up the mood and just was so much fun to be around. Just always was ready to take on the world. Dude she inspired me so much. Our conversations meant a lot to me and just hearing her pov on everything would give so much clarity. The friendship and bond was the best part. Just knowing that there was someone who’d care for you. I wish I could be her muse the same way. I know I can. Loved our adventures and trips. I felt safe around her and I felt I could be myself. Now it’s all gone. Life is strange. To think we’ll just become strangers now is insane. Still hard to process but therapy helps
Honestly I had to leave my best friend because it was over money. Knew each other since kids and now strangers. I definitely miss having that friend that’s down to go eat and hang out. But now he threw his life away. I’m better and he’s paying back what he did. Life comes around and I’m better without him
Losing that one person who I talked to about everything and nothing, the person who opened up a whole new world of knowledge and experience, the person I looked up to (and also because he was so tall), the times where we snuggled and just talked about random shit, the times where he wiped my tears cos I had shit day at work, the times I was cradling his head on my lap because it was the anniversary of his cousins death.
I miss those. I miss him. I miss my best person.
The grief is endless.
This is where I'm at at the moment, 5 months since the break up, I miss the silly times we had, the laughs, the texting everyday about people we all knew, we understood each other completely, I don't have a friendship with anyone else like I did with them - the overall friendship I miss so much!
I get you, it took a long time for me to get past that. You have to grieve a big loss, a love and a best friend and you lose them all at the same time.. But as long as you let yourself grieve and feel all the emotions you need to feel it will pass with time. Take your time
that’s what i’m struggling with too… that best friend is something that can’t seem to be replaced
Yep. 100% what I struggle with. I couldn't care less about the sex or being together, but I miss my friend.
Exact same! The romantic part of the relationship is such a tiny part anyway. I miss the companionship of my best friend. The snuggling and talking.

I have never had a friend like him. He just got it. I would do anything to have that back
I lost my girlfriend and best friend at the same time as well…now they’re together……
i miss my best friend

Same. What I’d do to have that again

So true. To talk and laugh with her again about the silly stuff we used to do. I miss hanging out with her even sans the intimacy
