Damn.
I am a 21-year-old male. Last year, I was dating a 20-year-old girl. After a steady 6–7 months of being in a relationship, she suddenly started ignoring me. Later, I found out from her friends that she was meeting a man around 30 years old, whom she was apparently supposed to marry in the future. She never mentioned him to me.
One day, I confronted them at a cafe. She panicked and told him that I was just her FRIEND. After that, we obviously broke up. She tried to contact me multiple times afterward, but I turned her down every time. They got married last November, and here I am, still thinking about it and crying, wondering what I did wrong.
This was my very first relationship. I am also an overweight guy, and I struggle with social anxiety, which affects me a lot especially when it comes to relationships and self-worth.
P.S. This is my first and last Reddit post.
Cya.
It’s tough to feel blindsided like that, especially after investing time in a relationship. It’s a harsh reality that sometimes people don't communicate their feelings well. It’s good you found out from her friends—at least you can start to heal and move on.
