Today I had a very difficult conversation with my boyfriend. Today, we discussed if we were the right ones for each other. We’ve been dating for almost two years, and living together for one. And today, we decided that we weren’t the other’s solution.
Its a difficult conversation to have, but one that is absolutely necessary to you and the other’s happiness. There’s no sense in dragging out a long relationship if in the end, you knew at year two it wasn’t working.
We both want different things, and both have different needs. Instead of holding it against the other one, we’ve decided to remain friends and disconnect the romantic relationship. Probably one of the most mature and mutual break ups. It’s nice to actually hear each other out and logically reason out that we’re better friends than life partners. It hurts, but in the end it’s for the better.
I wouldn’t want to hold him back from his dreams of moving, and I want someone more motivated to get what they want out of life. I’d hate to hold it against him/the reverse if we just stayed together.
Difficult conversations can be made easier, both parties need to respect the other. It’s hard to find, but when it works, it really helps. He’ll have a place in my heart, but I’ve got to get what I want out of life. And so does he 🙂
