Personal Narrative: My Experience With Breakup

Have you ever try to go back to your ex’s house to get your stuff and your ex is dating someone at the time? We live at an apartment area near downtown Nashville and we had two dog at house. The story on how me and my ex girlfriend broke up was that we were arguing to much over the littlest things. We finally said “ We should break up,” we went our own ways until I forgot something at her house and I remember that I still have the keys to her house. My friend that I was close to told me that “Your girl is dating another man Seth,” I was like “What are you talking about man I just broke up with her,” and he said “Your girl has been on social media and she said that ‘now that my boyfriend is out, I got a new boyfriend now’ which means-” I hanged up on him after that. I saw that she was not at home and if she was I would be the loudest person that I would be.

Hi guys! This past weekend we were graced with a much needed fall break. After a few weeks of constant studying, it was nice to have a four day weekend to sit back and relax. After my two tests on Friday I drove seven hours to meet my dad and my girlfriend's dad in Pittsfield Illinois for a few day hunting trip at a lease that my dad has. It was a long drive, but it was worth it when I arrived to a 16oz prime rib at one of my favorite restaurants, the Red Dome. Unfortunately the corn and soybeans had not yet been cut around our farm so we did not see as many deer as usual, but we still had fun and relaxed for a few days.

“The choice is not whether or not you want to move but with who you'll be moving with” she replied.

Hello from the bloody cold north!!! to day was -12C and with wind chill it was -20"c, that's bloody cold in Fahrenheit !!!

Breakups are commonly messy and hard to get through. A myriad of emotions follow a bad breakup-anger, frustration, pain, and depression is just a few. More than just these negative feelings, breakups usually entail negative thoughts that often occupy one's mind most of the time, especially if the incident had recently occurred. For some, moving on seems like the biggest hurdle of all and getting used to being single again is just as tough.

My identity developed as a nine year old when I was forced to take on the responsibilities my parent’s divorce bestowed upon me. While my mother worked two jobs, I took over the maternal-aspects of watching over my little sister, cooking dinner, completing house chores, and finishing my school work. As my older brother chose to act out and therefore disappoint my mother, I was expected to stay on task, step-up, and take charge.

Okay, from my previous threads you may be aware I have already talked about my breakup but I genuinely need advice here.

As I walk out of the house in the morning for school in the morning, I am haunted by what I saw the night before. What I saw broke my heart. Being in kindergarten and starting a new chapter in my life should have been exciting for me and my family. But it was constant tears and fear of the end of the day. I didn’t want to go home. I was scared of what would happen. It first started when my dad left for work and didn’t come back till the next day.

“I don’t want to leave,” Jared said. “I like it here. I like the way we are together, here.”

It all started with a disagreement. Then turned into a bigger disagreement and went on for a while I remember. Most times, I did not want to hear them talk mean to each other and it was sad. Now days it is different. Talking on occasions when necessary or calling to tell one another about an event coming up. Life has changed but I think for the better. Divorce is hard on children and I was just one of the many kids it can effect.

Seven years ago my father divorced my mother leaving me and my sisters. Still to this day I really don’t know why he wanted a divorce.

Three years ago, my parents decided it would be best if they split up. My brothers and I didn’t understand, and we didn’t agree. We were hurt, and everything seemed to be crumbling down around us. It was an extremely emotional time for all of us, and it was then that I realized who was really there for me. My family, my friends, and faith in God is what really helped my through the hard times of my parents’ divorce.

I was always confused on why my dad listened to me when I said to get out of my life. I never thought he would just act like nothing ever happened between our family. He was always a loving man, but after this whole divorce, he had a totally different personality. I know this was hard on our whole family, but some people like me try to see the good in bad situations. Yes, I know divorces aren't the best, but not all of it is bad. You can see the lesson that this will teach you in the long run. You have to take it all in don't hold back on anything. Make sure you don't hold back from this learning opportunity. It may seem like it is all down hill from there, but at some point you get back up and try again. You can take these types of problems

One of the major setbacks I've had in my lifetime was going through my parents divorce at such a young age. When all of this took place I was in 8th grade and I was 12-13 years old and my parents sat my younger sister and I down and told us that they were going to get a divorce. When I heard the word “divorce” come out of my mother’s mouth. I felt as if time stood still, like everything slowed down and everything I once held dear was crumbling before my very eyes. In that moment I didn't care about the reason they were separating. All I knew that I was no longer gonna have a family. The moment I realized that, it was scarier than the real divorce. After they told my younger sister and I, things just felt like they were spiraling. Then we got asked the worst question that no child should ever hear, “Do you want to live with your father or do you want to live with me (mother)?” That is when it actually hit me that my family will be divided.

Coping with a breakup or divorce is not an easy task. This is because, when your partner left, he broke off a consistent routine and dashed off the dreams both of you created while you were still together. The loss of these dreams and routine unleashes massive streams of stress and painful feelings. However, there are ways to help you get through this period of hurt and pain and cope after he has left you.
