I miss the affection so much....

Just another element in the misery.....
My exboyfriend was so affectionate with me all the time. He was sweet and this is the part of him I wish to not remember, but I miss it so much.
What in the world can we do without this. It's like all the love was taken out of your life. Yes, our families and friends love us in their own way, but it mutually exclusive.

That is very hard! I had waited 4 years after the breakup of my marriage to start dating. I had managed to go that long (well actually longer) without any affection and was just fine. Then I became involved with someone I was crazy about. He was very affectionate -- in the sweet and sexy way (no groping, thank you) When we broke-up, that was one of the hardest things to let go of. I missed the physical-ness of him. Maybe that is why so many people keep seeing their exes even after it is over. Or bounce into a rebound relationship that usually never turns out well. When that affection feels good, it can become like an addiction. One day at a time -- hang in there.

"It isnt fair that he gets to just change his mind and be fine with seeing me everyday because frankly he could care less either way because he just didnt feel the same about me anymore, while nothing for me has changed."
I so agree with this. It is 100% not fair. This is what I don't understand with break-ups - they are so horribly unfair on the person being broken up with. Because nothing is like it was, and there is nothing you can do about it really.
I hear ya...
