I am sorry to hear that you are feeling so upset Iamiyah. From what you have said, it appears that you were infatuated with this man and it was probably too much for him.
Heartbreak is a very hard emotion to cope with and one that a good number of us will experience during our lifetime. A broken relationship is like a bereavement and once you are able to accept that it is over, you will hopefully be able to move on in your life.
From what you say, it’s not just the break up that’s causing you great upset but also being away from your support network of friends and family at a time when you need them. I am sure that you must come into contact with other women at work who would be able to empathise with what you are going through. Why not try making a few new female friends in person in Cairo, surely it doesn’t matter if they are not Filipina.
In the meantime, give yourself a BIG hug and try not to dwell on the past, it’s now time to move on.......
Good luck
Rosie
