Hi Guys, I ended a very special relationship 5 weeks ago because my BF of a year and a half of a wonderful relationship (we are in our early forties), could not come to terms with living under the same roof and merging our lives as this would mean…he would have to share a roof with my 6 year old boy, and he was almost “done” with his 13 and 15 year old girls.

Needless to say. This devastated the relationship. I could not recover after he brought up that issue.

I felt like he was very selfish I never asked him to be responsible in any way for my kid (I make more money than he does) – I was shocked that this was his character.

Its been 5 weeks and I miss him – but I know I did the right thing.

I am 40. I am in great shape and I am pretty sound emotionally and mentally (very healthy lifestyle).

I am trying to move on and really focus on myself and meeting other people…

Sometimes I feel like one day I will be back with this person…but the sometimes I feel like I am so deeply wounded I never want to see him again.

I broke it off, because he was being aloof and pulling back and feeling all nervous and scared at the thought of going to the next level. He looked like such a coward to me. A scared pathetic shell of a man.

I guess what I miss is being in that wonderful relationship post the “conversation and four weeks” that ended it all..

I am just looking for reassurance from my tiny Buddha friends that I will find someone else that i will have a great connection with and will accept me and my son.
