Oh dear. I'm sorry things haven't worked out. You're right about love not being enough though. You can start off with the best intentions in the world, but sometimes it's better to call it a day in order to regain some sanity and move on with your life and hopefully remain friends. I know what you're going through hun, but unfortunately I didn't have the best time beforehand and it wasn't all that long lived, so it must be a lot harder for you than it was for me.
Take some time out to cry and be sad. It hurts, but if you feel it's best for both of you then you go for it. We'll all still be here, should you need us
Take care sweeety, and I hope to see you back in London soon.
I'm sorry, hun. I think you're doing the right thing, it's better for him in the long run. And it doesn't mean you won't suddenly realise what you had and commit properly.
I can't really comment on this, as i'm out of touch with stuff. Plus i don't know the background anyway, so i'd best just keep me gob shut
So all i'll do is give you some great big cyberhugs and tell you to take care and look after yourself, ok?
But what i do know, is that breaking up with someone you've spent so long with, sucks harder than a Dutch hooker, no matter what the circumstances are. I know all too fucking well what the absolute agony part is like
Sorry i can't be more supportive, but i'm a bit crap with situations like this
I would like to offer some kind of input, but like Perypunk, I am absolute bollocks at relationship advice. Have been out of the game for too long to remember any good advice.
I don't know enough of your background with Keith to really comment with any insight, I mean hell, I've only met him once or twice before. What I can say though is that often our guts are right on this sort of thing. If you really feel something as difficult as this is the right thing to do, then it must be. You're right, sometimes love just isn't enough and it's the times when the love is there but it still isn't enough that are the hardest of all, you can trust me on that one.
You will come through this though. You're a kind, loving woman with a lot of affection to give. You may feel like you want to seal it all away right now, that loving anyone else is just too painful and not worth it, but those wounds will heal eventually, your heart's too big to dry up
What's happened today will hurt like hell, but the pay-off's coming. I swear it.
Normally, I'd say call me if you need to talk, but seeing as how some fucksock has purloined my phone, you'll just have to e-mail instead
You don't know me, I'm not sure how I came across your page. Anyway, getting divorced was one of the best things that ever happened to me. It sucked for a long time but it eventually got better. We're pretty good friends now even though he still drives me insane. I hope it all works out for you. Good luck.
