It's a month now since I broke up with my boyfriend. We were together three years and we live together. I really wanted to have future with him and he too but we are too different as well as our needs. We broke up and I feel sad because he seems not to worry about our relationship ending. He said he's not sad, and he might be when I'll move out but that's it. I feel weird, is it normal for me to want him feel the sadness as I feel?

    Uh, yes, definitely! You're probably thinking the past three years were with the love of your life and this guy isn't even sad it ended?

    I mean maybe he accepted it maturely and resisted the urge for sadness since the decision was based on life style choices, but it's still pretty rude to tell a partner of three years see ya later

    Maybe try to lead conversations to him acknowledging he didn't care, that might make him give you some closure

    You feel as though he couldn’t have given much of a crap if he’s not bothered, and that this reflects on you as to your worth.

    Honestly he may just be playing it cool. If I were in his situation you wouldn’t see much from me either, because some people just internalise things and say it’s totally ok.

    Yes, it's normal to wish he was sad, but the truth is that your powerless, just like anyone else, over other other people's emotions.
