Why did my girlfriend suddenly dump me?
DEAR DEIDRE: The woman of my dreams dumped and then ghosted me, and I can’t get over her.
Everything was going so well between us. It makes no sense.
I’m 28 and she’s 26. We were in a relationship for four months.
I have never felt as strongly about any of my ex-girlfriends as I did her. She is beautiful, kind, funny and intelligent. We shared the same interests and values.
Our romance was like a whirlwind and, within weeks, we were talking about the future. Our sex life was amazing too.
But after I took her on a perfect weekend away to Paris for her birthday, she messaged me out of the blue, saying we weren’t right for each other and she wanted to be single.
I called her and begged her to explain but she said she’d made up her mind. After that, she blocked me.
I don’t understand what went wrong.

DEIDRE SAYS: When someone ends a relationship suddenly and without proper explanation, it’s a huge shock.
It may be that she has met someone else, is running scared of commitment, or just got swept up with her feelings and reconsidered.
You may have to accept you will never know the reason. But you can’t make someone feel something they don’t.
You will feel better in time and find the strength to start afresh.
My support pack, Moving On, will help you to do this. Don’t bottle up your feelings – talk to someone.
