True. It sucks.

I agree 100%. People also tend to console someone who was dumped rather than someone who dumped. People assume you're fine when you dump someone, vs. people knowing you're hurting when you were dumped.

Indeed. I think the assumption is "you did it, so you wanted it." Usually you don't want it, it's certainly not easy, but you realize it's necessary. It's painful nonetheless.

I don't know, it lasts longer for the break-up-ee. You are good within a week as the breaker-uper.

Agreed to some extent. I was emotionally broken up with my nasty ex for probably a year before I was actually brave enough to do it, and I couldn't have without the support I had. In that sense, I had zero emotional connection to him any more so the "getting over" was already done. The harder bit was feeling guilty because he kept saying I ruined his life and making up lies about me to people, threatening to kill himself etc. Then again I haven't been broke up with since I was...17? So it might be awful.

A good friend confided in me that he just does escorts, and of the pool of them that he started collecting, things became more personnel. When he wants some action he calls up one of these whom he has some compassion for. No strings, no need for intimacy with them but he has concerns for their wellbeing. For deep discussions, he has his male friends.
