[Help] I’m not in love; I’m just in need.

Although.. perhaps this “unhealthy attachment” IS love? HOwever, you should perhaps try to wean yourself off of him… not let yourself talk to him for a day, someting like that, to get yourself used to being without him? It might be really really hard, but in the long run better.

Reply from Marylou /post/157621-im-not-in-love-im-just-in-ne#reply-3702025 Love should not hurt like this! I know it’s hard to break up. But you need to find the courage to do this and take all the time that you need to get over it even if it’s this hard right now.
I suppose it’s just like quitting some drug addiction “cold turkey”!. Really hard but necessary.
Try to find some support around you with your friends perhaps…

Reply from Amethysteria /post/157621-im-not-in-love-im-just-in-ne#reply-3702009 Thank you, but the problem is that I still feel like I want to throw up at the idea of breaking up with him. I broke up with him once. 40 minutes later, I called back, feeling sick and on the verge of tears, unable to imagine being without him at all.
How can I go out with him and not feel unhealthily attached to him?
Or can being in love consist of being unhealthily attached to someone after all?

Reply from Marylou /post/157621-im-not-in-love-im-just-in-ne#reply-3701994 Time, only time will heal. Leave him. You can trust that who you are and have always been will come back eventually. The need to feel happy is stronger than anything else in the end. THat’s all you should be aiming for.
Well… I love you and hope you will love yourself enough to do what you know you should.
Don’t worry. Inspiration and happiness will find their way back into your life.
xx :)

Reply from Amethysteria /post/157621-im-not-in-love-im-just-in-ne#reply-3701983 Thanks, but I don’t want literary criticism.
I want help with my love life…as in, the content I wrote in this poem.

Reply from kelim /post/157621-im-not-in-love-im-just-in-ne#reply-3701917 You are spot on, chick. It’s not always easy to do what in your heart you know is the righ thing. But you’re on the right track, coz you recognise it’s not love that you feel for him but some sort of dependency.
