Yes at first it is unbearable pain. At second its unbearable pain. At third after you do don't see them for a while you get a slight glimpse at the possibility at moving on, but then you see them and you heart comes shattering down. You go through a couple months of not seeing them, kind of recovering, and then seeing them and have your heart shatter. Then you kinda get used to your heart shattering and it goes away. Then after a real long time you start to wonder why they even made your heart drop. And then you get over them. Good luck.
- Lke the dumpee, the dumper also goes thru several different stages of development. Understanding these stages may help in whether you are trying to win them back or not.
stage 1- Contentment- after the break up, there are content or think that they are happier out of the relationship and free to pursue what they think that they want. this do
stage 2- Guilt- this stage is tricky. they will either see if the can work things out, be extra friendly to not feel as bad about dumping their ex or always argue with their ex to reassurse themselves that what did was right. the dumpee should be very careful here, espically if they are trying to win the ex hearts back. this stage has no definite answer to where it may lead to.
stage 3- Loving Again- some time after the break up, they will eventually let themselves fall in love with another, or at least attach/trust themselves someone they think is better for them.
stage 4- Remorse- At some point, the dumper will look back at what he/she had with their ex and question and compare it with their new partner. they will see if they really miss what they had and was it worth leaving. all aspects of his/her new relationship will be questioned. this will either lead them to slip back to guilt (stage 2), may result in breaking up with their new guy/girl, or they may find the get over their remorse and move on to stage five.
stage 5- freedom- this when they have move on with their lives and have completely let go from their previous relationship.
*these can cycle thru many times and before reaching stage five. and like the dumpee it may take years before coming to terms with one self.
**these stages are loose and may not fit with all people, some are just stronger willed than others. the dumper usually always have been thinking about separation for a long time before breaking up.
*** if you are the dumpee trying to find figure what may be going thru your ex's mind, this may help, but do not sit and wait, like stated before hand, it may take years and why would you waste your life like that? you have to let go and let them come to terms with themselves and what they've lost, like you will.
