I did, my X. We had everything in commom and had 20 years of great memories together. He had a bit of an anger problem and would dwell on things for weeks! It was time for me to move on.
Yes, I have. Just recently, he wanted to get back together, but totally ignored the fact, that I am remarried, and will be 3 years in May.
I was confused at first, because I do still love him, but I was looking back on the years that we shared...in the past. I mean, 14 years is nothing to sneeze about, but I also realized that it could never be again.
Cherish your memories, and move on!
Have You Ever Left Somebody that U Loved but knew wasn't good for you
I think that there are absolutely many, many people who can honestly say that they did leave someone they loved but knew they were not good for them. Sometimes it just takes some of us longer to be brave enough to make that move. People around you can break your heart but when you have to do it yourself, that takes strength.
When I left my ex husband in Maine, it wasn't because I didn't love him...unfortunately I was hopelessly in love with him but his behavior was so bizzare and abusive that I just couldn't subject myself or my son to him any longer. He wouldn't work, did drugs, cheated on me numerous times, was never happy how I looked, was always telling my son he was a "sissy" although my son was NEVER a "sissy", he was always DRUNK off his ass day after day after day. He was in and out of jail for drunk driving, drug possession...ugh.....so many reasons. Yes, I loved him. Can you imagine? There came a day when that final straw broke my back...he took off with a married woman and ran to Georgia of all places leaving his wife and child with no money, no food and 8 feet of uncut fire wood in the yard for ME to worry about splitting and getting in the house. ENOUGH. I gathered up my stuff, my son and our dog and headed South in my beat up Pontiac to my family back here hin CT and have been here ever since. As for my ex...I called this one right. He has not seen his son in probably 5 years for a good visit, he never calls him, no birthday cards, christmas cards NOTHING. My son is grown and at the present time will not talk about or to his Father and I can't blame him.
In this life, you only get a few chances to be happy so take a chance now and move on with our life. It worked for me..you don't have to be anyone's doormat that is for sure. Good Luck
I'm in this situation right now. Debating whether to leave someone I've been with for 8 years. He's not violent or have any bad habits, he's just extremely selfish and does not consider how I feel about things. Lately he yells at me whenever I try to have a discussion with him about something that has upset. It's like my feelings don't matter to him, although he calls me selfish. He's so wrapped up in himself.
My problem is I don't know how to break up with him. He's going through a difficult financial situation right now and I feel guilty if I leave him...like kicking a dog when he's down.
Have you ever left somebody that you loved, but wasnt good for you?
Women seem to complain more about being left despite being good for him but not being loved. Of course, that's their opinion and that of their friends.
I am in the middle of a similar situation. To avoid typing all the details the Serial Cheaters thread describes it all. I think I really should leave both. In their own way I love them both. Likewise they are both not good for me.
I'm sorry you are going though this, my friend. It's hard - very difficult. Unless you've been there - I'm not sure it could be understood.
But take heart - sometimes you have to stand up for yourself! (and that's what you are doing)
Take care of yourself.
