Hey everyone, just wanted to to follow up after break up post

A few days ago I posted here while going through a breakup and was in a pretty rough headspace. Being that open isn’t usually my thing, but I’m really glad I reached out.

Even though I’m hurting right now, I don’t see the last ten years as a waste. There was a lot of growth and a lot of genuinely good memories, and I’ll always respect that part of my story. I learned so much about myself, what I want and need going forward, where I still need to work on myself, how important trust and communication are, and that I want a love that’s as unconditional as the love I have to give.

Mostly, I just want to say thank you. The kindness, messages, and conversations here have meant a lot. It’s only been five days, but I can already feel acceptance starting to settle in, and I know it’ll get better with time. I’m starting therapy soon and am ready to get back to the healthiest happy version of me. Once I figure out who me even is today. I really appreciate this community and wish you all the best. Feel free to reach out if you want. I’m still trying to get more friendships with the community and fellow gays like myself.
