Blindsided

My boyfriend proposed and broke up with me all in the same week... I am now stuck with a house that I can barely afford alone, don't really know how to take care of by myself, and just feels empty without him here. I let him take the dog since I am both in school and working full time so I don't have time to really give the dog the attention and training he needs. I am alone and the future I had been looking forward to is now gone. I don't know what to do... All of my friends are his friends and it feels weird talking to them about him. I am so hurt and angry and just devastated about all of this.

I can imagine the immense betrayal and pain you are going through right now. I don't know the background story behind this, but personally if a man that I loved and trusted did this to me, I certainly wouldn't want someone that irresponsible and heartless in my life.

Sorry, I can't offer words that are more consoling. I hope you can find a support network that is not connected to him so you can grow stronger and move ahead with your life.

What exactly happened? Was it a fight or did he just suddenly up and leave? I'm kind of in the same situation. I just got out of IP on Sunday to come home to my bf telling me he's leaving me. He kind of had a good reason though. But I cried and begged and he's giving me a month to get my act and meds together. But I'm still pissed at him for even coming to that conclusion. I imagine you feel betrayed like me. It's not ok for him to do this to you. Neither of us deserved it. Can you talk to him? Can you guys give it some time for counseling or anything? I wish you the best of luck

I'd find a counselor or join a support group like CODA (google it) to LEARN HOW TO LIVE and take care of your self. Relationships usually fail because very few of us were taught how to make one work but, at CODA, you will learn how to make it work and also how to take care of your self. good luck

Oh my gosh!!! You even lost your dog!! This is terrible.
I don't think there is any advice in the world for this situation. But I am really upset to hear this. It can't be too soon to discuss rent with the landlord or consult friends to find out about realtors if home ownership is the case. But working full-time and the semester just starting is a lot going on. Can you drop out this semester? Is it too late into it to drop? This is a gigantic life event. There are some classes that are only available in spr/fall semester, though, so I understand if you're on a course and don't want to veer away. Whatever you decide to do, know that this is a dramatic situation and that nearly everyone in the world would feel overwhelmed if something similar happened to them. I would be so angry at that fiance if I were a friend outside of the situation...grr. They sound just about useless.
