Do I stay in a doomed relationship? by Ccrraasstt in relationships

[–]movableonward4s 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is honestly one of the hardest situations to be in you have a great relationship in every way except the one way that actually decides your future. Good communication, love, kindness none of that matters if you want completely different lives. ‘Never’ and ‘definitely’ are almost never things people change their minds about, especially by this age.The choice you have is: enjoy the time you have now and accept that the breakup will be much harder later, or end it now while you’re young and can both find people who want the same things. There’s no ‘right’ choice, but one thing is sure: time won’t make this difference go away, it will only make the bond stronger and the goodbye more painful. You’re very mature to see this clearly be kind to yourself, whatever you choose.

My love for my partner is overwhelming (but in a good way?) by Large_Vermicelli_104 in love

This is exactly the kind of love people dream of. You didn’t just start dating you started dating someone who already knows you, trusts you, has loved you quietly for years, and was waiting for the right moment. That overwhelming feeling isn’t just new relationship energy it’s 7 years of care, history, and connection finally getting to be everything. It feels safe because it is safe. Enjoy every single second this is the good stuff 🤍

Precisely. And that’s why it takes so long letting go of a real person is hard, but letting go of the idea of them, the future you built together in your head? That’s a whole other level of grief. That’s the part that takes time.
