Am I heartless/desensitized?
I just broke up with my boyfriend of 2 years yesterday and I feel nothing at all. I didn't even feel bad when he cried or told me that I broke his heart and stormed off, and I've never seen him cry. I just kinda feel like an a**hole for NOT feeling bad. All of my friends get so depressed after break-ups and it's just not like that for me and I feel like I have some kind of psychological issue. Am I heartless? Why aren't I sad? I obviously loved him. Should I ask him to be friends?

Did you truly 'obviously' love him? Was it the image of him, something about him that made you extend the relationship for as long as it had? I feel it is not that obvious, because it is evident your feelings have changed...otherwise you wouldn't have broke up with him, right? In these kinds of situations, it 'is what it is.' You tried, and you obviously had initial feelings for him to begin the relationship so no I doubt you have any psychological problems. You might also be numb to the whole issue as well...let it sink in for a few days.
First off you didn't "obviously" love him or you would be upset.I think somewhere along the time you were together you knew he wasn't going to be the one you spend your life with so when you broke up it wasn't painful.Now as far as he goes it wouldn't be wise to ask him to be friends as he was quite upset with the whole break up.Maybe down the road once he's found someone else you may try to sustain a friendship with him but why would you want to knowing you already broke his heart.
It'll hit you like a truck later on.
