Welcome to the board bbattag2,


When someone just 'disappears' it's hard to make sence of what happen and what process what you feel.

While I know it's painful, be glad it was only 8 months.

I think you should take her at her word and move on.

At the very least, she is being dramatic and pulling stunts to get attention because there's nothing that garners attention quite like anger problems. It's a move girls pull when they are not ready for a mature relationship.
At most, she really did want to break up with you.

You're way better off without her. Sorry.

Yes, you are correct. She LOVES attention.

Please pick yourself up, this is really silly of you. Nothing is impossible unless you don't want to try, and if you didn't want to try to get over her then you wouldn't be here. You should also know that the best way to ensure she will never come back is to keep contacting her. She knows she has you under her finger, she's controlling you ON PURPOSE and you are going along with it.

If you're seriously thinking about suicide then you need to get help. There is no one who is ever worth ending your life over, you may not feel that now but in six months you will look back on where you are now and be so happy that you moved on.

Mate, the thing is....by your own admission, the relationship was a mess for the 8 months you were together.

No, of course it's not "fair"--but it is what it is and you have to deal with reality, not how she "should" be acting.
