This break up was too easy

So I broke up with this guy I was talking to online and we were in a friends with benefits sort of relationship. We were chatting long distance for a very long time. I finally realized with the advice of my friend that we were going nowhere in the relationship. Thing is that I tried separating from him before and he said we'd just be friends but went against that later. He was even so lame as to copy n paste my goodbye text and added "U too" to it. But now I'm relieved and feel optimistic about my college which is soon and I'm looking forward to a real close to home relationship. I cried a lot when I told him my first goodbye so I know I loved him. Even though I feel relieved I also feel a bit silly for sharing so much with him cuz I feel he didnt do the same.Can these feelings of mine be explained?

  • I question whether or not this site is going to be used for asking questions that are abnormal or someone understandably posts something that they believe is abnormal.

    Now all it seems we get are emotional people asking if emotions are normal. Short answer to if this is normal is yes. Long answer is yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeessssssssssssssssssss.

      Ok :(
      You're here so long so I understand you feel that way. Tbh I thought this being an easy break up wasn't normal...

    You did the right thing. Why be with someone you feel you can't share experiences with? Also, how does FWB work online? Cyber sex and Skype is so weird to me. :0

    I guess we'll never know.

    Listen, sounds like she (or he, they do not specify, we should not assume) was in HS at the time of this so-called long distance "friends with benefits" relationship that every father dreams about for his gay son or daughter. ya, right!

    Anyway, immature shit like that comes and goes. College is where you get real.

    What I don't understand is, the relationship was "long distance" to begin with...how much worse could it be if you just continued with it while your in college???

    Sounds like the dude who was flippant about the blow-off wasn't really into this he/she we are trying to communicate with, so, perhaps this was just some one-way relationship.

    Again, is it too much to figure out how the "benefits" work when you are LD?

    Please explain the 'benefits' one can get from a long distance relationship, unless he is rather well hung.

        My point exactly. I kinda think this is a childhood crush and she hasn't a clue what friends with benefits even means.

            Yeah, I concur. But it seems to be cyclic, they come and go, but when they are not so prevalent some interesting discussions do arise.

              Which is why I'm still here; the comments. I don't think I'll ever leave, besides the small periods of time that I disappear and then come back. It might not happen anytime soon, though. I need this social outlet right now.
