Was I too harsh to her?

Question - (28 April 2009) 1 Answers - (Newest, 28 April 2009)
A male United Kingdom age 36-40, anonymous writes:

I recently broke up with my girlfriend. We got along great but I wasn’t in love with her. I broke the news without warning and she is devastated. She doesn’t have many friends locally and her family lives a state away.

She feels she doesn’t have anyone to talk to and she needs someone around her to function. She made our relationship the center of her life and she feels her life is over.

My worst fear is that she might do something to harm herself or turn into a different person from this experience.

I found out after we broke up about the abuse she’s had from previous relationships and it made my heart sick to hear about her pain.

she looked for a chance to get a backdoor entry in my life every now and then and tried to talk with me casually even on facebook. but i was afraid that i may land myself into that mess again if we begin to talk on facebook so i deleted my facebook account and also changed my mobile number.i felt better at that time but later on my heart cried a lot and i became panicky wondering how rude it was and this will break her heart into million pieces!

She claims I’m the best thing that’s happened to her and she’s lost faith in future relationships. She doesn’t like her job, her life or her situation.

I feel I’m responsible in some way. I’m also sad from the breakup, but I didn’t want to fake being in love. Is the pain I’m feeling a sign that I was wrong to break up? was i right to remove her completely or could i have been a bit lineant on her ?

bobbles32 agony auntDon't worry, you're just upset because you're a caring person. She will be okay.. She will find someone else! She just needs to find that out for herself. Cutting off contact, though it hurts is the best way to get over someone. As long as you didn't say mean things to her or be mean in any way then you have nothing to worry about
