Kkasxo,

It must be incredibly difficult to move forward with someone when you thought it was one thing (a clean slate) and it ended up feeling like something else (a lie). It depends what your dealbreaker is?

For me, dishonesty would be a dealbreaker. Just for me, I live my life as honestly as possible and I emphasise to those around me how important it is. That was one thing I never had to worry about with my ex, I don’t believe he ever lied to me or was dishonest. I trusted him implicitly. Was he to be trusted with not breaking my heart- clearly not!!! But in the general sense, you know what I mean.

Do you want to take a break from your ex for a while and see does that drain you as much as being with him? Not an end, but space?

Michelle,

Honestly I feel like you’re a person that would naturally attract good people in life, even though I don’t know you.

Thank you so much for the advice, you have a way of making really good points and inspiring me without dictating what I should do.

I want to explore what it would mean for me to get to know me and grow. Thank you for posting here.
