I feel empty

I just broke up with my boyfriend. The remorse is crippling, but it's also necessary.

I had ignored him for a week, distancing myself from his as I felt uncomfortable in this relationship. I neglected him, essentially.
Now that we have broken up, I am filled with regret. I feel close to breaking point, and after being told how scummy and horrible I am I feel like there isn't much to live for. I know I had hurt him badly by ignoring him, and acting as if we were strangers. Miscommunication was a factor, but it was mostly due to me stubbornness.

I am sorry you are having to go through this. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

Hug...

Breaking up is really hard, but sometimes necessary. The fact is you felt uncomfortable in the relationship. You did what you had to do. Your ex will, in all likelihood, find someone else in time and you will find someone you feel comfortable with. You are not scummy or horrible.
