Breaking Up with Someone on Medication

pandamoose

I broke up with a guy by telling him about my medication blocking my ability to feel emotions. He said he would be there waiting for me for when I recovered. I broke him when I said I need Time and needed to end the relationship for my own well being. He was a little over the top with it but agreed with it. After around a week now he is still bothering me about it and even though I am feeling so much better, I have no feelings for him. But he is still persistent about waiting for me and seeming that we are going to get back together. I have never done this relationship thing so I don't understand why he won't drop it. I don't want to break him because I was his first "girlfriend" if I'd even call it that. he just isn't for me but I don't know how to not break him. I'm just hoping I can wait it out and he get the hint on his own...

      i think if he's still bothering you, you might have to be blunt about it. tell him that you don't want to be with him anymore, i dont want to sound mean but thats just my thoughts

      It does sound like you made things pretty confusing insted of just being very straight with him at the start

      You have to be blunt and honest with him. Be firm and it's okay to have boundaries.

      You're going have to either be blunt with him and cut the cord and end it permanently or just block him if you feel like even being blunt with him won't end it there some ppl can't take a hit or even when you spell it out for them

        @BubbleGirl1 OP should be clear about their intentions before blocking him. If he still keeps bothering them then it’s time to block.

      Girl/boy/they he will never stop leaving you alone unless you are mean about it. Just be brutally honest about it and or block him and then try to forget he exist. You can’t make everyone in this world happy, he will heal and find another one. Might as well make you happy, otherwise you’ll be miserable.

      in my experience, guys will not give up unless you be blunt and upfront with him. just tell him you don’t have feelings for him and that you guys aren’t getting back together, it will hurt his feelings but trust me he will move on and you will both find someone new and more suited for y’all. i’ve been through this exact situation and that’s how it went and all is well now! good luck!

        @Ashby but if she origionaly let him believe that waiting for her was the way to go then he's doing what he thinks is best by waiting for her, she should if said from the start. It's not working for me I dont have any feelings

        @marley121 I agree it is important you let him know asap. Stringing along and pretending will likely make it worse for him and is taking away time that he could be healing. Best of luck to you and I’m happy you are feeling better.
