I can’t believe I’m doing this. I never thought I would be putting my feelings into a Reddit post but here I am. My ex and I met each other when we were kids I was in middle school he was two grades above me. We never really thought of each other like that you know ? We were kids it was all harmless a few flirty text messages but that was it. We grew up we had our own lives (he got married had two kids and divorced) we had a brief run in while I was in college but obviously that went nowhere he was married and had a lot of marital shit happening that I didn’t want to be involved in. Anyway fast forward to present day him and I reconnected over the past couple years and we have been able to form such a beautiful and understanding relationship. But now he wants to leave me and I just don’t understand. When I ask him if there’s something I’m not doing or something wrong with me he tells me no and that this is the most amazing healthiest relationship he’s ever been in. So if that’s the case why would he leave? How do you claim to be so happy in a relationship but at the same time want to break up? It’s almost like being the ideal partner has backfired on me. Now don’t judge me I do believe in some spiritual stuff so I feel like he may be like my twin flame just because we always end up finding each other no matter where life takes us. I am not sure what this breakup will really look like as we are still in a lease together. Things are not tense and we are still so very close but we both know in 3 months once our lease is up that will be it. And I’m fucking terrified there is this gnawing feeling that I’m making one of the biggest mistakes in my life allowing this to happen and I have NEVER felt this way about a break up. I’ve had my share of heartbreaks and incompatible partners but how do you deal with it when the relationship is good for you both and you both know it?
