As time moves on ...

[Ocean 22]

I realize slowly that I am not to blame completely. As many have said to me here on this forum and many of my friends, it's a two way street when people break up. He dumped me and all I have felt for these past few months was guilt of what I should have or not have done to make him happy and to stay with me. I finally realize that although he was a great catch and made me feel great about myself and our relationship, that maybe just maybe, he lost a lot too in leaving me. I am a 26 year old female that has her own well paying job, lives in her own home, has a good family and friends and am willing to be in a committed relationship, willing to work though the ups and downs and on herself while being with someone to make it work. I know that there are many out there like me but there are many girls out there that are not and I FINALLY feel that maybe one day he will look back and think that he actually lost something good instead of me constantly thinking that of him.

This is a very inspiring post and demonstrates a very healthy attitude that you have about yourself. Thank you!

Nice post Ocean,it's his loss.I lost my love because I think she didn't try hard enough to save our relationship.I firmly believe if you love someone you keep trying and trying until you get it right.The thing was we did argue a bit/lot,but the love,attraction,connection was always there,after 3 1/2 yrs.We were just great in each others company.Our only problem was that we were both stubborn and neither of us would back down if we rowed.

 

I feel I was a good catch too,like you.I always believed in working through the ups and downs.That's my philosophy,if we don't work on things, then we will never be happy.Life is all about ups and downs.The ups are there to be enjoyed and the downs are to turned back into good times.You know the old saying.....when the going gets tough..............!!!

Anyway I am confident that I will meet someone who will feel the same way.I just hope my ex learns from her mistakes,and takes the bad with the good
