How To Accept A Relationship Is Over!!
by Anonymous
I was in a long-term relationship and I'm having a hard time accepting that it's over.
My family and close friends tell me she wasn't the "one" and that I'm doing the right thing by moving on, but I always play the "yes, but you don't know her like I do" game with them.
We argued a lot and her drinking was a problem, but when things were good they were really good. We have great sexual chemistry and I believe this might be playing a part in me having a tough time. When I calm down, I know she isn't the lady for me but I'm truly afraid of the future.
I think it's more me being scared of the unknown and wondering if I'll ever find the right one. I'm 41 years old and just want to be married and happy, but my inability to accept that the relationship is over is not allowing me to move on.
I need help with acceptance. I know it will "set me free"!
