I've done all I could, but it was all a huge waste of time :/

I really think you should take time off for yourself.

Yes that is true. I feel like I really do need to recover from this, but I'm so sick of being alone lol.

Being alone isn't the worst thing in the world, jumping into a rebound relationship without taking time to heal is much worse than being a bit lonely.

You did the right thing by really seeing the imbalance and taking the consequences. I'm really sorry he just wasn't committed, but you deserve someone who is, and who doesn't treat you like an afterthought. I'd say focus on yourself and your needs right now, and cultivate who you are outside of a relationship before you look into getting back in one. All the best

It takes a lot of courage to walk away like you did, after putting in so much effort. You should be proud of yourself. You deserve better than that and you'll find it when your ready.

Thanks all. I'm really trying hard to get over this. I know I should focus on myself now, and I'm really trying hard to do that. I just really hate that it had to be this was though :/ Like why? I did everything right with myself only for it to blow up in my face. It's not fair that all of my friends have really great SOs while mine only used me as a booty call. Why was I the only one who had to learn this lesson? Ughhh

Sorry that was so unlike me and uncalled for. I just needed to vent. Sorry.

Sweetie, that's just the way it goes sometimes, without any rhyme or reason Unlike what people tell you, sometimes you can do everything right, you can be practically perfect in every way, give your all, and still get screwed. It sucks, and it hurts, and it's not fair, but that's just what happens. Be kind to yourself, don't place the blame on you, I bet you were a wonderful girlfriend, but one with a bad boyfriend, unfortunately. Life does that sometimes, and all the love in the word can't make an asshole a prince, no matter how hard you try. Don't give up on being a good girlfriend though, someday it will really pay off. Learn from it and eventually be OK with it, and remember that there are great guys out there, they just take awhile to find.

This. Times infinity and beyond.

We're powerless over other people. Everyone has free will. For me, I had to work on my picker. My picker was broken. I had to work on that.
