It feels like a literal pain in your chest. Like having difficulty breathing.
Complete lack of appetite has been my biggest takeaway true heartbreak happened to me. Pain in chest, loss of interest in life, everything was just very bland and I became disassociated with most things.

To me it feels like there is no way out. There's always a way out for me. I come from a decently well off family, so money has always made problems go away. Heartbreak is something money can't fix. To me it feels like you're in a box, and there's just no way out while the air is being sucked out.
In a few words, a physical aching feeling in your stomach paired with insomnia and nightmares
I remember seeing my ex out in public 1 month after it ended and having a physical reaction, I became winded and very anxious
This happened to me the other week actually. Wasnt prepared for it at all, and it's like a punch to the gut
In college, I was dumped by a girl who was probably out of my league... she was a major "it girl" and I was dumb enough to think we had a real shot of making it through a distance relationship. I was previously a pretty happy person but this rejection reduced me to a point where I literally couldn't get out of bed or focus on any aspect of school (academically or socially). The feeling of rejection was further amplified by the fact that I was consumed by negativity and my self-image was destroyed. I had no one to really talk to, I felt a pit in my stomach, was totally empty inside, and exhausted.
The only things that made these feelings go away was focusing on getting fkin YOLKED and my mental health. Eventually I found some self confidence and started dating again. In hindsight, I just wish I didn't hit the bottle as hard through college and the few years following. After seeing it happen to me and some of my friends, heartbreak lasts a LONG time and is probably a reason why some men struggle with emotions to this day. A lot of guys claim they "feel nothing" or are "dead inside", I would guess have some type of event like a heartbreak.
Edit: TY to OP for offering me a few minutes to reflect on that version of myself. Hopefully some young kings can learn from this. Heartbreak happens and it was a formative life experience.
at least you pulled her.
True but think of the opportunities lost while trying to stay loyal... makes me sick sometimes.
Try putting yourself in the shoes of Vanessa Bryant.
Like a fat guy steps on your chest and you have a ocean-sized hole in your stomach. And everything around you falls into nothingness, you don´t sleep, you don´t eat, you don´t even wanna breath anymore. It fucking sucks.
