I struggle to let him go

r/

He is still on my mind

We met last September and dated for three months. It was a bit rocky. My anxious attachment style really got in the way, and knowing what I know now, I would do things differently. I was insecure and really wanted it to work. I was emotionally involved, he wasn’t.

We haven’t had contact for over two months – in my last message, he didn’t get in touch. I told him we could still meet, but only if he was really interested.

And yes, I know. No answer is an answer. I’d like to talk to him again. I’m just sad and can’t let go.

An emotional dependency – what if? It’s killing me. I’ve fallen into a depression, I might experience limerence…
