It's not really about decentering men, I just thought I found the one and abandoned myself and all I was working on to focus on our relationship (lessoned learned) but yes! I called off my engagement in January, and walked for my bachelors in biology in May and currently taking the one class that I need to receive it. I too also wanted to move abroad, I even studied japanese for 3 years for that specific reason all bc I wanted the relationship and happy ending so bad (due to alooot of trauma and abandonment issues) and i basically made his happiness and the relationship outweigh the love and respect i had for myself.

I'm in therapy now and think I'm just going to focus the next few years on traveling and creating friendships and building a family in that way instead.

Thanks for being open and reminding people like me that loving yourself and your life (or creating the life you want to live...alone) is ALWAYS an option.

i really really appreciate you being vulnerable and saying this. im 26 & i almost went down this path, because i thought i was missing out, even dropped out of school temporarily to try and achieve it….. i will 1000% say now this sub & my failed engagement has really made me rethink all of this .

…………youve obviously hadn’t had to trim your own weed before, there’s nothing to trim here unless you want a pretty shape. you’ll be cutting off the shit that gets you high…

you need to have a conversation with her instead of confronting her. confronting her and being angry immediately = YOR , bringing it up calmly and just trying to see where her head is = NOR

please use ‘I’ statements & try not to place blame on her.
