I’ve had to move to where we planned (his hometown) because I gave it all up and meant to start my job next week. but I just feel utterly lost and confused as I didn’t see this coming, it came out of no where. I just need advice of where to go from here? So I reach out for answers? Or try and move on?
Been together with my other half for 2 years. A day before we are meant to sign a contract for a house he pulls out of the relationship altogether. Saying he has no money and his feelings have gone for me. I have gave up my job, my flat, friends everything to start a new life with him. Where do I go from here?

Take the job. Do better for yourself, work on yourself. Once men start seeing you’re doing fine without them they always come back. Now I’m not saying get back with him if he does… just show him you never needed him

Don’t give him the satisfaction of contacting him for anything - not even for answers as difficult as it is of not knowing. He knew what he was doing. And, you CAN move on - it will take time but I know you CAN do it.

Define a new normal for you. Even if you pry answers out of him there’s no guarantee that he’s telling you the truth. I’m sorry this happened. I agree with the previous person he knew in advance what he was doing. People come into your life for a reason and not all are meant to stay. My guess is that you were brought to the new location so you can live your best life. You got this. This will eventually become the best thing that ever happened to you barring if you have any kids. There’s groups on FB that offer support for this very topic. Know you are not alone so many people are out there waiting to meet you the real you not the woman you became because you were in this relationship the woman that has a sparkle in her eyes and owns who she is and the room she walks into. You got this!!!

Honestly, from here you do your best to pick up the pieces and Go whatever direction you want with your life.
But don’t let yourself be twisted up over someone who can say they have no feelings for you and drop you like they did.
Best way to get over a break up is to focus on yourself, be with people who make you happy, and do things that make you happy
And when he comes crawling back, because they always do, don’t fall for it. If it doesn’t work out once, it likely won’t work out the second time, I speak from experience.

What a SNAKE!! Can you get your old job & old place back? Cancel the house purchase & move back to your previous location. If that’s not possible, get an extended stay hotel room, start the new job, look for an apartment, find a therapist (after an initial in-person visit, you could zoom or have phone sessions at lunch breaks if needed if after hours is not available). Such a lot of blows all at once. 
Go to something where you’ll meet people (church, bowling league, running group, quilters, art class, wherever your interests lie). Create a small group of supportive friends. Call old friends on the phone to vent. Block the a-hole on everything. Good thing he showed his nasty side before you got married. He waited for maximum chaos to come clean. You dodged a bullet, though I’m sure you’re devastated.
If you can’t go back, tell your new boss an abbreviated version of events: your BF backed out of a home purchase and a relationship all at once, so you may be a little distracted with changing addresses until things get settled.

Been through it myself, gave up everything for a relationship that turned sour . Serious money down the drain. Had nothing at 50 years old. Worked like a slave and found new love and back in style now but still working for a decent retirement., hold on in there and keep trying, you’ll get there . ( and yes I did think about the easy way out , it was that bad 13 years ago)

Take 6 months to yourself. Completely cut him off, no contact no discussion, nothing. Spend 6 months figuring out EVERYTHING. Figure out what you need, want, and how you plan to get it. Short term goals, long term goals, life goals. Completely cut him off while you do this. And do not contact him yourself for any reason. Allow yourself to completely reset before engaging with him in any way.
He sounds like a classic narcisst. And I’ve been there so I understand how soul shatteringly confused you are. The BEST advice, I wish I had taken is “no contact”. Allow yourself to decompress ALL of the emotions. After 6-8 months you will be a new you, and you will see things differently and it will all feel different about the whole situation.
Dont go seeking closure or try to force yourself to feel any specific way, or to process things. Dont force anything. It will come in it’s own time, when you are ready, whether you know it or not.
In the mean time, just do you. Sit down and imagine what you before you met him would have thought the perfect life would look like single, and start there. We all have that time where we think were gonna spend our life alone, so what were you gonna doing that happened?
You got this girl. You are going to be fine. You will rise above and be better overall. Just take small calculated steps until you are ready for the leaps and bounds.

You closure will be dusting yourself off and forgetting all about him. Don’t give him the satisfaction of even acknowledging him. He has done nothing but lead you on and dropped you flat on your face so he doesn’t deserve your acknowledgement. I’d go home and pick up what pieces of your life you can. If it’s not an option take the job and do what you have to.

I don’t think anyone really gets closure from a bad breakup. There aren’t ever going to be enough answers to why. So don’t even try. I would really try to move back home. I wish you the best. Stay focused on your self and your health. Try to keep busy.

Better to get through the hard part now rather then later . It’s not gonna be easy but you need to start over . Only you will know what you need for closure but once the dust settles your main focus need to be YOU . You can do it . good luck with everything .
You are stronger than you think! Look at your options and decide what is best for you!!
Maybe this is ment to happen…maybe this is a seridipitious moment and you will start your new job just to meet the love of your life…you just never know why the pieces fall as they do…but there is a plan that is laid out way before we arrive to it. Good luck to you.

So sorry that he did that to you. Best words of advice I can give you are that time is really the only thing that heals as well as self care 
it’s okay too feel the way your feeling and to go through Your emotional issues for a little while! Then you just eventually have to suck it up and move on. I’ve been there before and it was so heartbreaking for me because I was truly in love with him but at the end of the day you can’t make someone want to be with you and love you. You have to find your own happiness again and love will come along when you least expect it
He’s a prick, and he’s just saved ya even more heartbreak if yas had of moved in together. If you can, go back home and restart your life. All the best xx
Sooooo one tip I wish I could tell my 18 yr old self… my dating self… don’t let people miss treat you - “friends”, ex’s, family. If somebody doesn’t want to be with you… move on… somebody willl… I promise… I’m married 2 kids and I wish I hadn’t wasted my time on people like that… that couldn’t see my true value. I hope you read this. Hugs … go back home… xoxo

Ummm, so very confused… he was broke and you were not? You transferred jobs, got a place and he ditched you? After 2 solid years? Just poof, he is broke and doesn’t want to be with you? None of this makes any sense… I’m not being mean, I am being honest. You weren’t living together, you had your own flat and a job for 2 years and then decided to move in together close to his home and then he broke up with you, citing finacial problems as the reason, but for 2 years you had no idea he had no income?

I’ve had that happen. Go find a job you love. Don’t just work yourself and hope things get better. Do something you love. A job you hate won’t make you stop thinking about things. It helps a lot to be doing something you love and it really helps keep you motivated to do more because you don’t feel drained from work doing what you love.
That’s just where I started from about 2 months ago. I was completely homeless and living out of my car after a bad breakup with my ex. Literally spending hours at a laundromat charging my phone just to get to the next day until I found the job I’m with now. Now I work regularly, and even ask for extra days, while still finding time to enjoy other things and make new friends with coworkers.
If you have the time, take a week or two to yourself and do nothing for a bit. It really helps a lot with coping. Then just get out there and apply for jobs that YOU are interested in. That’ll lead to meeting people who are also similar to you and like what you like. Just don’t be looking for someone to fill in the gaps. It’ll close when it’s time. Someone will come along when you least expect it.
A lot of the comments I see are literally useless. I’m still going through this, but I’m very happy and content with my job, and motivated enough to move forward because my job doesn’t drag me down. I also have very bad anxiety and depression, so if you struggle with that hopefully this will help. I wish you well!

You can do this. Take the weekend to mourn what happened-cry, scream, punch a pillow, eat what you want when you want. Then come Monday think about what you want for yourself, write down your goals and dreams and throughout the day figure out what it is you really want. Talk to your family, if you think it will help, talk to your previous employer and do what makes your heart sing.

I wish I knew. After 13 years of relationship, my husband cheated on me. I had to leave our home, move to a new state and had to start from zero. It has been the hardest thing that I have gone through. Life has never been easy, but this, this has completely broken me. The only thing that keeps me going are our three beautiful children. Without them, I don’t know where I would be. All I know is, take it one day at the time. People will tell you to forget him, but it won’t be that easy. There are years of memories, laughters, tears, happy and sad moments. Something that you will not forget very easily. Just take it easy, live one day at the time, and don’t worry about your future. Live your present. But above all, learn to love yourself first. Hope you the best and may your new journey in life be better.

Get back in a routine, it helps a lot because you will focus on you not the break up.
Take one day at a time and think about moving back we’re you came from. It takes time. Hang it there the sun always comes up the next day
Probably was with a narcissist, one is selfish while the other is selfless. He probably strung you along on, all talk the gift of gab, making all these plans & it was just all talk no action or initiative on his part, but you believed him & pull the weight probably, then he sees you were serious while he was full of shit the whole time. Stay strong, you probably dodged a entitled narcissist. You got your closure when he broke up with you. He just wasted your time & wasn’t fully committed.He probably want to still be on the market & buying a house with you is showing he’s definitely off the market.
You’re freeeeee run for the hills darling, and don’t look back. Take that heart break as a blessing 
. Change your number, block him on social media, have your support system friends & family have your back by telling him if he broke up with you he broke up with them too as well, if he ever try to get in contact with you through them. You’re going to be okay:hugs:
This could be a beautiful new beginning for you!! Move on!!

Girl at my age, at the amount of breakups… Forget the closure, let’s focus on ourselves! Its still hard to let go of him nomatter how much he has hurt me but don’t let the closure want him back… Now that almost made me take him back and thankful that he did me wrong again… That in itself is the closer… you don’t need anymore than what you getting. That’s the closure. It’s time to focus on yourself!! What are things that you want to do and things you want to accomplish… Etc .?? Either let him say he want you back and or let him fuck it up again. Don’t add to the energy and make things worse

Sometimes God pushes on to a path that we would had never taken if it wasn’t for circumstances, Learn to experience the moment and remember that it’s better that you weren’t stuck with supporting him and take this time to start your new job and meet new people! Treat yourself with outings and splurge yourself with love! He wasn’t the one because to walk out like that from someone’s life sounds like a coward and I would not like to be stuck with a man like that! Give yourself time to heal and remember that this pain and sorrow is because your feelings were honest! And it’s okay to feel lost and scared but in a little time you will feel like it was meant to be! People don’t know you and this will be your start over! Many people would like this opportunity and you have it!

You will be in survival mode right now. Ones things fall then work on moving on. Right now you’ll probably be so busy with your new job. That is a terrible thing to do to someone though.
You will do what you have to do to keep going because that’s what you need to do. It will hurt and suck a lot for awhile. But you move on. You may feel it gradually getting better or you may have a AHA! moment where you realize you’re not hurting as much anymore and you made it! I did it with two toddlers and a teenager, a low paying job, and absolutely no savings to fall back on - after 6 years together. If I could do it, I know you can too. The most important thing is to remember that it’s okay to feel bad. Give yourself grace but don’t give up!!
