I wish there was a way for me to skip my feelings of heartbreak, hurt, mystery and everything else that goes along with a divorce. I miss her so much and would still do anything for her even though she left me. It feels like my world has been completely destroyed and now I’m stuck feeling like this forever.

Hello, I’m new on here. I’m trying to break up with my boyfriend many times but I’m struggling with doing it again. I need to do it for good. We have dated for eight years he is my only friend but he will not commit And marry me. We both are older I am 42 he is 52. We don’t even live together. I have a 13-year-old daughter and I’m wondering if I need to leave him because the relationship will never go further. The break up process is going to be absolutely horrible because I have no friends that can consistently be there by my side. All my friends are either seriously dating someone or married. I have a job where I work privately and a private duty nurse. My plants cannot communicate with me. When I get home from work and go to bed alone after working alone. I’m trying to get involved in a Bible study but they’re all married in the group. It’s a lonely world out there. In the past when I broke up with him we always ended up back together because I could not handle being completely alone, help

child, your problem is not a boyfriend who won't commit. That's the little white lie you tell yourself to keep from addressing the bigger issues. The problem I see is you not being able to interact and socialize appropriately with others and your deeply held belief that any kind of relationship is better than being alone.

You need to find a good therapist and work on yourself, before you even think of dedicating your life to another person. Trust me, you are enough. You just need to learn to love yourself first. Then others will drawn to you.

What I wouldn't give to be in your shoes. I'd kick the boyfriend to the curb, join a yoga group, get out and mix and mingle with others and really enjoy all that life had to offer. You've closed off your options except this one man and now your devastated he won't do what you want him to do. The answer is to open back up all the doors you've closed, knock on some new one and open yourself up to love, hurt, excitement and everything else the world has to offer.

gutted you have said it well thank you


TLo
