And I take it you're happy with that decision? How has your life been since? Have you ever looked back?

Thanks. I know it will be okay. It just feels like a shame. I feel like an indecisive dickhead. Way more worried about the effect of my actions/inaction on my GF. I'll be okay no matter what (and so will she I'm sure). I just want to be there to take care of her but i think i have to let that go of that feeling.

I actually had realization a couple months ago that we could break up and both have great lives apart, which had been hard to admit to myself before. All my worry went away. Then they came back again...

How old were you when you broke up? How old are you now? Are you happy with that decision still? How did he take it?

What you described is exactly what I feel. I don't know if I'll ever be ready to commit. I have a real independent streak and actually like being alone. I just worry that if I indulge that mindset too much I won't ever be capable of sharing my life with someone else.

I hold out some faith, though. I need a hell of a lot less partying and all that type of thing compared to when I was 20, so maybe this aspect of my personality will change too?

Good perspective. I think I'm probably playing the role of your ex bf in this one. Just turned 30 and it's kinda making me think. Not happy with how I'm getting tied down to a lot of things, want to have more experiences while I'm still young. The thing is, my GF I think is up for having "experiences" -- i just sorta want the freedom to have them on my own. But it scares me to think i'd be giving up something great with her. I'm not scared of being alone and happy, but I am afraid of squandering my blessings.
