LDG and I broke up tonight.
I needed to do it but it was so hard, you guys. I'm really going to miss what we had. Some things were not working, but what did work was so sweet and comforting. It's going to be so difficult to not text him every few hours and be a significant part of his life anymore.

Re: :(
That sucks. I'm so sorry. Sending you lots of hugs.
Oh, and booze.
I'll be okay, but right now I'm regretting it and crying a lot. He and his friends were basically my social life and I know for awhile I'll be really lonely. And he was really, really good to me.
He had Peter Pan syndrome and it wasn't going away, and today I got the overwhelming "RUN AWAY" vibe and just couldn't not say anything. So we talked for like two hours in front of my car.
He doesn't understand, and I feel horrible that I hurt him.
I'm sorry, gaultipoo.
It sounds like you're secure in your decision and actions, so I'll just say I'm sorry it's still so hard. Even when you're doing the right thing it's still really hard.
You need and deserve friends and companions you can grow with over time, so mourn what's lost for now, but try not to mourn it for too long.
Ugh. That is rough. It's good that you are following your gut, as much as it may suck right now. I'll be thinking of you. Are you in possesion of any wine right now?
The shiitty thing is, I'm doing a food plan that doesn't allow for booze OR chocolate. So I can't hide my emotions in anything awesome and have to feel all this stuff COLD TURKEY.
Feel sorry for me. Ugh.
Bwaaahahaha, my half drunk ass read this as you only have COLD TURKEY, and I was like, "Mmmmmm, put some mayo and salt on that ***."
lol!
I am making chicken sausages and bell peppers for dinner. So at least there's something phallic involved.
Now I'm sad again. sfdsfsaldfkhlsakhf
haha, I saw what Motzie saw and thought you were gonna make yourself a turkey sandwich!
Maybe you can't douse your emotions in booze, but do something fun for yourself, even if you feel shiitty. Distraction is good. ((more zombie hugs))
Thanks, Fuss. :-) I haven't talked about the frustrations in my relationship on here very much... but there were some. Some crazy drama with his friends, all sorts of things. I could stay in it and be somewhat happy, but I was turning into a cynical person who was having a hard time NOT turning into a nagging mom. It was hard.
Thanks
I have become a hermit in the past and I know it's not healthy. So tomorrow I'll probably go to the farmer's market and a movie - keep myself out of the house.
I know a dude in his 50s that has Peter Pan syndrome. PPS is forever.
Ugh. You've lost nothing here.
Even if the relationship sucks, breaking up is still hard to do. Glad you put yourself first.
I am so sorry Gault.
:hugs:
I'm so sorry Gault. **zombie hugs**
I think you should Escape to SD with your cold turkey and drag SCC along.
Actually I'm mostly just proud of you for doing what you needed to do, even though it was hard.
Sorry, Gault. Breakups are no fun, even when you know it is the right thing to do.
Keep busy. I hope you feel better soon.
I've been thinking about doing a weekend away sometime soon, actually...
!
Do eeet!
Not that I'm biased.
I'm on this train too.
I know it sucks and it hurts and I'm so sorry you have to go through that. But bigger, better things are coming for you, gaultaroo!! I know it.
Click me, click me!
The right things aren't always easy, but life is too short to live it unhappy.
hugs to you gaultipoo, it's okay to be sad even when you know you did what you had to do.
Oh we should so run away to SD for a weekend!
COME TO MY TACO BAR!
I'm so sorry. Hang in there.
Big hugs gault. This was like my ex-FI and it hurt very badly when I broke up with him. He didn't understand (and I think still doesn't as he was trying to contact me a while back to grasp what had happened) and it made it very difficult. I know it hurts really bad now, but it will get better.
