my 17M boyfriend just sort of broke up with me 17F
we’ve been together since we were freshman and now it’s almost half our senior year and it came out of nowhere
we were the perfect picture couple, made promises, and i knew he was depressed felt like he couldn’t handle being in a relationship but i never expected him to break up
his mom called me, his grandma called me, i went to his granddads funeral, he took my virginity, he was my first everything and my first love
i don’t know how i can go back to studying or school after this
all the pitiful looks
the silent laughing or gossiping
seeing him
he used the typical “it’s me not you” but i’m scared he’ll just show up with a girlfriend in a month.
my parents are amazing but they can’t seem to comfort me, they’re always home and not very physical touch with me (my main love language) and also not very good at words
