Try and focus on getting the stuff done. You're probsnly angry or will be at times. At yourself, your partner - the circumstances. Try and keep it civil and make it as clean a break as possible. You'll feel a lot better for it. Its OK to feel like gooseberry fool at times. It's a strawberry floated up awful thing. You'll have phases of being OK then the sense of loss will creep up on you from time to time.
Try not to wallow in it but do allow yourself to grieve.
Friends, family and outlets like this place. Use them.

Best wishes mate

gooseberry fool mate that sucks.

When you feel like a re-bound, I'll marry you.

[jimbojango]

Thanks guys Some GRcade sympathy is always appreciated Just not entirely sure what to do with myself at this point until things get better. Running again is probably a good shout, Hyperion Thanks.

Sorry to hear that, please take care of yourself.

Try and find your nearest park run - it’s been an amazing help for me. The people have been really supportive and it’s been a good way to make new social connections.

If we're allowed to offer re-bound services I'm there

(Sorry to hear Mini-E. Too nice a chap for bad things to happen to but I'm confident you'll be fine)

[Mini E]

I have been in a relationship about a year now and our 1st date 'anniversary' is coming up soon. Any idea on gifts?

I am hopeless with this kind of stuff, and given this is the longest relationship I have been in I feel as if it is expected of me to get /do something to mark the occasion

help appreciated.

No gooseberry fool!

Depends on what your partner likes, what kind of relationship you have, how they receive love/affection etc. A nice date like a posh meal is always a good anniversary option in my book!

[Victor Mildew]

I wouldn't do anything for anniversaries outside of marriage ones tbh.

[Cheeky Devlin]

Take them out for dinner and get them something nice.

You don't need to go overboard, but you should make some effort to acknowledge it.

that was my initial thoughts, but I also don't want to be this gooseberry fool if that is not what she is expecting

What was your first date? Do the same thing again. Ours was the cinema and a meal, so we went from Jurassic World with Nandos to Independence Day 2 and Pizza Hut a year later. I will leave the assessment of our relationship's trajectory based on those facts up to the reader.

Ours was yesterday (9 years ) and we have a cute tradition of buying an ornament for the tree. We don't bother with presents though, dinner and a holiday to celebrate.

Nandos for first date? Might as well just marry her already. It's always a winner.

How long has the relationship been going now? Given that ID2 was out in summer of 2016 it implies there are 3 subsequent cinema and meal combos that you're holding out on telling us!

That said it's hard to say how you could drop further than ID2 and Pizza Hut. Captain Underpants and a Gregg's sausage roll perhaps?

[JChalmers]

Long gone are the days where everyone just replied "gooseberry fool on Her Tits" straight away....

[OrangeRKN]

We gave up after that knowing that ID2 could never be surpassed

Did go to McDonalds on valentines day a few years ago though

FML there is a story there

but I will never tell you lot.

[Jenuall]

Nandos >>>>> McD > Pizza Hut.

Ronald is a step back up from "the Hut" but you've got some way to go if you want to get back to the Nandos level again.

You mean you took that advice literally?

Well, there's a first for everything.

Right you can't say that and then not tell us
