I broke up with my boyfriend of two years because I have been suffering from depression and suicidal thoughts for quite a few months now; I felt I was dragging him down. He made sure I was serious and agreed to break up (not that we haven’t before – we frequently took breaks, always went back to each other and never to other people). However, this time, I got a text from his best friend saying that he went back ti his ex… that our two year relationship was infatuation -not love. That she’s his true love. They dated for 3 months and then she ignored him and cheated on him… So I’m sitting here, dumbstruck. Is this real life right now?

Nope, that makes no sense, so i’m guessing it’s a wild (and awful) guess on the part of his friend, or maybe he said it himself and he’s trying to move on and the easiest way was going back to his ex. The problem there is that two years, while plenty of time, does lose it’s charm if it’s constantly interrupted by break ups.
I think you did the right thing, i mean, if you weren’t sure of being with him or if you aren’t sure that you can actually be with someone because of your issues it’s better not to be on a relationship (at least until things are clearer), but if you ended it… well, he has the right to move on. Only time will tell what will happen, he might try to go back to you or not after a period of time, but even if he doesn’t the infatuation thing and her ex being her true love… that’s bs.
I think you did your part. That’s life dear, like real real life. Everything gets taken away from us, especially those things that means a lot to us. But sometimes before those things go away, you have to let go first.
I think what you did was good for the two of you. Your boyfriend couldn’t really cope with the feeling that you guys broke up, so he went back to his ex. But well I guess if you still have feelings for him tho you feel depressed the other way, he’ll probably come back to you.
Well you can’t be his true love if you keep breaking up with him. Don’t expect a man to wait around for you and love you forever. I wouldn’t want to be with someone who constantly was depressed and suicidal cos that’s saying to me I’m not enough for them to live for, so this person can’t be my true love.
Don’t expect a man to fight for you if you wont fight for him.
with a history of breakups and you ending it this time, it is only natural for him to seek comfort everywhere else.
while I sympathize with him in this case, I don’t fully know the situation.
