I called it quits with my boyfriend today on a video call. It had been brewing for a while, and the breakup was very amicable. Instead of feeling angry or sad, I actually feel fresh and excited. I think it’s because we got into the relationship very quickly, and I never really got the chance to explore or “play the field.”
I only had one real relationship before my wife, and I was the one broken up with.
I was devastated, and just generally sad for probably a month or so. After a while, I started to realize that my life with her would have been pretty bad. She was shallow, judgemental, not particularly bright, kinda bad in bed. I would’ve stayed with her out of loyalty though.
It gave me the push to improve myself and get out there more, and I became much happier than I was when we were together. I’ve been with my wife for 13 years now, and she’s amazing.
