Is it normal if i can't take a break-up?

I don't know if I'm having a hard time with my bf trying to break up with me because its the first time I'm getting broken up with or because I do love him. I'm usually the one to call things off, to have everything in control, so I'm not used to not having control in this situation. Then again, I've never been in love until with my bf of right now so I've never been vulnerable enough to let go. I have always been strong and in control of everything. So right now, its just a weird situation for me. We haven't broken up officially but he has brought it up that it might be the best for us due to our circumstances. So I'm just caught off guard, but at the same time not too surprised because he always sent mixed signals and I would question how he felt about me so in a way, I'm just disappointed that those mixed signals were true. Overall, I feel weak, depressed, and sad so far cause I have no control even though I am trying to make him stay with me. I feel like I could be a better person for him or we can do something about it. I dont know, I'm just not ready to let him go.

    You can't force someone to stay in a relationship with you if they don't feel the same way about you.

    • I know it sucks its hard when its someone you truly love. It's not because I want a bf or I don't want to be lonely or whatever, its cause I truly love him. Like how do you handle when the one you love doesn't love you back

        This is completely normal people always want what they can't have.

        It's easy enough for me to say just deal with it but it's never that simple. I know it sounds cheesy but things look better after time has passed.

    If you love him and want to stay with him, keep fighting for it

    • I dont want to come off as a bother though or like an annoying gf who won't leave him alone. But as much as I dont want to come off that way, I am still holding on to him and trying to make him stay with me. I feel like I can try to control this as much as I can.

        Well good. It's true that you cant control him, but like you said, you can still try to be with him :)

        If theres a problem with you two, try to solve it.
