My boyfriend of 5.5 years just moved out all of his stuff and walked out of the door about 10 mins ago. This has been 5 months in the process— are we ever going to get married?

He finally decided no.

I’m sitting here feeling like my world has shattered and I don’t know how to cope with this new reality when I had dreamed for 5 years this man would be my future and my forever.

I don’t know that I can come to terms with this new lesser version of a life without him.

I had hit the jackpot with him but now he’s gone and I’m too old to even have a chance at something/someone so good.

Please send happy stories to me. About anything. I need distraction. I need to believe life was made for a good reason.
