So my boyfriend broke up with me today and basically implied I wasn't good enough for him because I wouldn't hold his hand and I wasn't clingy. We'd talked before about how holding hands and hugging and all that makes me nervous (it just does) and I thought he respected it but I guess he didn't.

But his words really hurt me. He was basically implying that I wasn't normal and I wasn't good enough for him which got me onto thinking that I'm not good enough for anyone because I'm so different. That then got me started on hating myself for being who I am and having this disorder.

Needless to say, I'm not in a good place right now and just really need a big ol' hug.

(((((((((((((((((((HUG))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))

It doesn't mean you're not good enough for him. It means he didnt have the strength or courage to help you cope with what you're going through. which is neither your fault or his.

Gawd, I can count on one hand the amount of times I have held my husband hand in the 14 yrs we've been together

In respect to you not being "clingy", my guess is he wanted you to worship him and I'll send you a big ol' for being true to yourself.

There is NOTHING wrong with you at all.

Let him take responsibility for his share of the problems - if he has a problem with something you do or do not do it is HIS problem not yours.

((((HUG))))

I've been there. I am divorced because my ex decided I wasn't good
enough for him and went looking for someone else,
so I can understand how you feel.

You will survive this.
