I've been lurking in this sub for a few months now and I just want to say a big thank you! I got dumped recently. I tried reaching out to him to understand why but he didn't want to talk to me. And recently he reached out because he wanted "closure".... and I said no! At first it felt strange (I felt like I was being mean), but now it feels so empowering. I feel like I respected myself and my boundaries. It is not my job to help him feel better after dumping me. I have nothing "to talk about". If he has things on his chest, that's on him and not on me. So... thank you! You guys opened my eyes and helped me realize my worth! πŸ’
