It's over. I decided to end things with Mr. Separation. Something just wasn't quite right... While I'm ready for something serious, he's still sorting himself, his marriage and his family out. I was getting frustrated lately over the pace of things.
Makes sense really when you think about it.
I'm okay. Not gloriously relieved, but I know this is for the best. I only hope I have the strenght to stay away this time.
K - I didn't know you were dating a guy who was separated.
Recently, I had a few dates with a new guy who told me he was divorced. Found out soon after he was separated. Of course, the lying was grounds to break it off to begin with, but no way did I want to be part of all the divorce drama.
You did the right thing.

Good for you. You're making a positive change that will benefit you, and you can finally begin on the road to finding your happiness. Too many I've been reading seem to be looking for what they want in a place that it doesn't exist (i.e an unavailble man or woman). You have recognized this, and instead of harming yourself further by stubbornly treading down that road, you're sucoming to wisdom and common sense, and embracing it to work to your benefit instead of fighting it. Be strong, it's going to turn out well for you .

I know I learned the hard way, but at least I got out of it earlier rather then later. I just didn't realize how complicated a separation is. This one did introduce himself as being separated, but "separation" is definitely a murky area. The fact is, I want more. I'm ready. He's not. Timing was off.

Interestingly, I also did a list of what I bring to a relationship. Oddly enough, that was the hardest one to do .
I am okay. I just hope I manage to stay away this time, even if he tries to win me back.
I know this couldn't have been easy for you. I admire you for having the strength to go through with it and just think....you are just that much closer to finding someone who deserves you! You're awesome!

I'm sorry it didn't work out, Kamille, but I think you're saving yourself a world of hurt by moving away from him. And moving to Europe - how exciting!! Those accents... The world is full of men. I know you'll find a good one!!
