Anethen Posted October 17, 2013 Posted October 17, 2013 I would like to thank everyone who has helped me on here both directly and indirectly. I have learned a lot on here these last few weeks, things I wouldn't have realized if I hadn't posted any threads or read others stories. My ex needed this break up. He told me so when he broke up with me, but I didn't understand it then. Even though he loved me with all his heart, deep down there was something missing for him. He didn't know what it was, and he needed to break up with me to figure out where he truly stood in life. Without the support of others on this site, I would have never realized that my break up needed to happen in order for there to even be any sort of "future" for us. I'm just glad it happened at age 22 after 2.5 years of being together and not after 5 or 10 years, with a marriage/kids/etc. At least with it happening now, there is a chance that we could actually make things permanently work if there is ever an "us" in the future. I do believe that if something was "real" and it was "true love" then it will find it's way back. But, in order for this to happen, I need to completely let go and accept that this is my new reality. As hard as it is, I need to go on with my life and experience new things. I need to figure out what really makes me happy and where I want my life to go. Where do I want to work after college? Where do I want to live? What do I want to accomplish out of life? There is more beauty in life than a relationship and I need to find out what that beauty is. And, only after answering all of these things, will I ever be ready for another relationship- either with him or with someone else. But, I'll deal with that when the time comes. Right now, I'm doing me. 6

Mariposa10 Posted October 17, 2013 Posted October 17, 2013 Not to hijack your thread, but I also want to give thanks to all of you, you have helped me going through a very painful breakup. I wouldn't be healing this fast, if it hadn't been for all the advice I've gotten here. Special thanks to the ones who hang around the "Second Chances" section! OP, sounds like you're doing all the right things. 2
