Over a month ago I blogged about the beautiful plant I was given from a young man I had been seeing. Well the plant died a few days ago and surprisingly so did our relationship.
He's not a bad man, just not the one for me. It hurts, but I've been through worse.
From what I know, we broke up because he felt like we weren't going anywhere. He felt I wasn't growing more comfortable. He didn't feel like a priority.
I'll be honest, I wasn't totally comfortable. There were things going on in my life I felt I could not talk to him about because of his attitude at times. He would pick on little things about my personality. Saying I live in "Disney World" because I think everything is suppose to have a happy ending like Disney movies.
He would make fun of the relationship I have with my mother. I talk to my mom everyday and I live with her. If I'm on the phone and she calls, I tell whomever I'm talking too I will call them back. She's my mom, whatever she has to say is important. Now if/when I get married, that will change. My husband will be #1, until then......
During the time we dated we were not intimate, even though we spent nights together. Apparently not having sex by a certain time is a deal breaker. We didn't have sex because I wasn't ready.
He called me an over-achiever because there are times when I feel the need to go above and beyond...especially when it comes to exercising and my niece/nephew. There were always comments about me doing too much.
There is someone out there for BOTH of us. Someone that understands our way of thinking. It sucks that we weren't good for each other because we had some fun times!!!
I'll always love him, but now I know that sometimes it's just better to remain friends :-)
good stuff. I am proud of you.
