Hi im new here this is my story- sorry its so long winded .
Im 21 years old and began dating this wonderful guy a few years older who i met online a year ago tommorow. This last year things have been perfect. Ive never felt the same way about anyone before, But i had been hurt in the past (got dumped by text at 18 after year together) so i took things slower than he did. He worshiped the ground i walked on and we talked of living together, i regulary stayed over at his parents house and his family became almost a second family to me. He works full time and im in my final year of uni so recently ive not been able to see him as much as id like. We talked about this and he was very supportive. We had a wonderful valentines day this year and i couldnt imagine what was just coming around the corner..
The last time i saw him we had a great night in ,laughed joked were affectionate. Due to over commmitments i knew i wasnt gonna see him for a few days and felt sad. The night he said he'd see me he cancelled and he phoned me the following night to say that he thinks things arnt the same as what they used to be but we'd talk about it at the weekend and said i had nothing to worry about. The next day he broke up with me through IM.
I am totally crushed and had no idea he felt that way and could do such a thing. I promised my self after last time i was never gonna get myself in such a state over a guy. I keep texting him and ringing but he keeps saying we have grown apart. I never saw this coming.
I have read many posts on here and i realise im stil v young and not alone but this has knocked me for six. Im trying really hard not to contact him but its difficult.
What frightens me the most is that i have only seven weeks to complete my degree. How can i do essays and exams when i cant even eat or sleep?!
I just want to feel better because if i fail my course over this i will never fogive myself. x

Welcome to the board never_hurt_so_much.
Sorry you are going through this.
Thanks for advice..it only happened a week ago, im still struggling with the no contact thing- completely failing actually... Im doing my best to put him to the back of my mind but at the same time id give anything for him to change his mind coz i love him so much despite everything.. I just dont know how this happened...
sleep is gradually improving but i still cant stomach much food. its so annoying as im hungry as hell!
