Are you having trouble moving on thinking you won’t find someone else ?

Guess that's part of it... I feel he completes me like no one else will.. Like I won't be open to anyone anymore.. I don't let any guy in and it sucks

Well it’s not really a long time since you broke up.

I dated a guy in my late 20’s for about 8 months that honestly it took me a year to really get over him and move forward. Another guy I dated for about the same amount of time I honestly was over him with in a month or so.

I think it’s important to grieve the loss of a relationship. It’s impossible to start something new if the past hasn’t been worked out.

Do you have a Therapist?? If not finding one to help you process it all can be a huge help.

Maybe journaling would help get the emotions out of your head..

You will find love , you will be able to open up to someone again.

Go easy on yourself.

You won't miss being loved by somebody if you love yourself. Are you taking care of yourself, being gentle with yourself, doing things to relax that you enjoy, etc?

I agree! Not waiting until you are ok with being loved by yourself, friends, family, a higher power, etc. will only bring the unhealed wounds into another relationship.
