Dear Lobofenrir:

You have this admirable value, which I share, to do right by others. You wanted to do right by your long term girlfriend. The downside to your choice is your fear of being alone and guilt for hurting her. If it wasn’t for the price to pay in making the right decisions, making the right decisions would be so easy.

People told you that you made the right choice. It doesn’t feel perfectly wonderful though, and often, the right choices do not. Keep your values and the long term benefits in mind as you endure the short term discomfort.
