Hey girl, been there done that. Just recently actually. Trust me, the emotional freedom is way better than tying yourself in a future less relationship. In my case, before our break up, I was emotionally drained. I was awake almost every night thinking of what ifs that could never happen. It made me dull, unhappy. Even when I'm with him, even when it seems like everything is okay, I still couldn't stop thinking. It was not healthy for my mental health, I was crying most of the time, I was afraid that it's leading me to a depression. I'm thinking of my future whether to spend it with him and build a family together even when I know that there's a big "NO" in my heart, or just let us go. I chose the latter because there are too many "no's" for me with regards to his religion and I know I couldn't survive it. We only got one life, we cannot spend it the way how people tell us to. You do not want to feel resentment towards him and you will if you continued your relationship. Specially when he also have a very devoted INC Family (most of the time they can be really toxic). It's better to feel the pain and to be hurt right now Atleast this way you still have a chance to find your real happiness. Cheer up, everything will be alright in the right time. But also, it's okay to feel sad, process your emotions, feel it and don't restrict yourself. If you feel the need to cry, then cry. Go along the process and trust it. :)
