Recently my gf of 10 months broke up with me pretty much out of nowhere. She didn't explain why she wanted to end it except that she lost feelings. How should I get a closure on the situation? I'm thinking of calling her, is this a good idea anons?

You don't get closure from the other person. You have to create that closure for yourself. You do that by accepting she's gone, she was a coward, she left you in the dark, and that you are better off without her. Why would you even want someone who does that shit?

And more importantly, why should you expect her to bring closure? She was the one who deliberately vanished and offered no closure. She has already proven she has none for you.

To expect closure from her is to expect the person who poisoned you to hand you the antidote. Bad idea. Don't call her, it's a bad idea.

Closure doesn't exist, anon, and it would make no difference anyhow. You want things to make sense in an if-then way, that there is an understandable, logical reason for things that if you only knew, it would make the situation more palatable. If she told you it was due to something you were "failing" at from her perspective, then you could obsess over that thing and either tear yourself down about it or try to "fix" it, but it wouldn't change anything, it wouldn't get her back, and things are never that simple anyway. She said she doesn't want to be with you and that she lost feelings, that is your closure, you don't need more information, you need to accept things for what they are, that you're not together anymore, and move forward. No matter what answers you're looking for, the real reason is obvious: she doesn't want to be with you. That's all there is to it, there is no "why" to be known, there's nothing that's going to make it easier, and there's nothing you could have done differently or better. You had a good 10 months and that's all it was and needed to be. We don't get forevers, just moments with someone that we give meaning to. Cherish it for what it was, and let it go so that it can flourish as good memories and not rot and become bitterness.

I honestly have no idea. Im just so confused right now. But I will try my best not to think that she won't come back.

To be honest when you put it that way it really makes sense.

Thank you for the support anons.
