Depressed ex decided to dump me tonight. How do I move forward? Also, if something like this has happened to you, did they ever come back?

Don’t feel compelled to drink or turn to low company.
I don’t play with boomerangs.
They’re gone, you don’t want them back and if they do come back don’t accept them.
Just live your life, I found i spent a lot more time with friends and hosting events at home after my break up. Was a good way to keep the mind occupied while processing everything
You take time to process and focus on other things that you enjoy. Each day, it gets easier until you’re no longer bothered by it.
I had one come back, and I wish she hadn’t. Wasted 6 more months. You’re always going to be better off moving forward rather than backward if you have the choice.
For every GF who broke up with me in a “dumping” fashion I broke contact cold turkey and never went back. This is the way. It’s healthier for you. You have to move on. The sooner the better. I have transitioned to platonic with a few where we mutually and amicably broke up.
If it’s a local IRL thing, maybe talk. If it’s an online long distance thing, let it go.
Sorry to hear about your situation. In regards to the second half when you’re asking do they ever come back, let’s be realistic. Why would you want to take them back if they dumped you? Keep your chin up, I promise you’ll get over it. And have more confidence than to even consider taking back someone who dumps you. They’re not worth it.
If you don’t already, exercise is a far healthier way to cope than drinking
Left all of them for very good reasons. Still friendly with all but 2. No one is allowed to come back.
