Then the world crushes.
On the bright side - that has happened only once, and now I know, that "the end of the world" only lasts around 2-3 years, then it gets better. But it would be much harder now, when I'm handicapped (and that breakup may be partly to blame for my failing health).
Besides, this is not an issue for most people, it's just that I'm neurodivergent (inattentive ADHD, maybe ASD too, but it's not diagnosed yet) with rejection sensitivity, which means my feelings are extremely intense (which may scare some people) and don't really fade with time, at least not to the degree it happens to so called "normal people", to me eternal love and friendship are not a fairytale, but a daily reality, and I don't need regular reminders about them, those feeling just linger somewhere in my brain, which may sound nice, but it also means a breakup, that happened in the past millennia, still hurts sometimes. Maybe it would not, maybe it would be gone, but a grief fired up those emotions anew - I found out about the death of my first girlfriend a few years ago, turns out that isn't all that unusual - there are A LOT of stories on how news about the death of the first love can be really devastating.

Yeah, I was a gifted child. That "if only he applied himself" is extremely familiar. It's not like I grew up and turned out to be moron and loser, but I'm not a big success either, even dropped out of university. I was almost 40, just a couple of months short, googled for my health issues and found that at least one of them is quite typical in case of ADHD. What's ADHD then? Looked up... Oh, shit!
And some 5 years later came middle life crisis combined with mood swings caused by my disability (got multiple sclerosis, which makes moving around harder and harder) and RSD (rejection sensitive dysphoria) connected with my first girlfriend, which I haven't seen for decades. That's when I recalled, I was gifted and set as an example in maths, physics, drawing, music, swimming etc. And... what have I achieved? Besides I'm sort of a cripple both mentally and physically. Felt like torture for a while. On the other hand, I got a job in a field, where I can apply my talent, and now I earn above average, met a couple of smart and beautiful ladies, first broke my heart (no foul play on her part, our feelings just were not mutual), but married the second one.
