How does one adjust when the person you’ve been involved with for five years isn’t feeling the same anymore? They were your lover and your best friend all rolled into one but for them the timing just isn’t right anymore.

Can you still be friends when one is so heartbroken?

Do you stop trying to be friends because it hurts too much?

Or try because it hurts too much to lose them completely?

It’s like I can’t win.

It hurts too much to try but I can’t imagine my life without him in it, whatever role he may have.

I don’t know what to do.

I don’t have my boyfriend.

I don’t have my best friend.

I never felt more alone than I do right now even though I’m surrounded by people who care.

I’m lost.
