We were together for almost 8 years. We lived in the same house and rented an apartment together, but we were not blessed with a child. We often fought and it sometimes escalated into shouting and physical violence.
There was also a time when I found out that when he left, he was with his ex-girlfriend and they even spent the night together. We fought again after that. Eventually, I couldn’t take his behavior and the physical harm anymore, so I decided to break up with him even though it was very painful because I still loved him. I chose to love myself more.
Now I want to move on. How do I get over a breakup? Do you have steps you can suggest so I can move on from my ex faster?
