they said to leave

when i took a moment to think about the new year and what it might hold for me, i never imagined myself single. and hear i am, starting 2010 without that certain someone who's been in my life for almost six years.

i'm fine. he's fine. we're all, at peace with the decision made like two weeks ago. it is a little sad. (and a little weird.) i don't

It might too personal to share since we don't know each other that well, but I can *really* understand what you're going through. I recently broke up with someone I was with for 5 years. It's a whole different experience from your average break-up, I think. I at least feel like the relationship I was in lasted long enough for it to feel "complete," if that makes sense, so it was easier not to hold onto things, and to get on with my life, but it still feels weird sometimes. All the best of luck to you <3

thanks, and sorry to hear we've recently gone through similar situations :/

though this was my first relationship and i've never experienced any other breakup besides the brief hiatus he and i had, i imagine that this would be very different, it certainly feels that way. he's had past girlfriends and he's expressed how strange this all is. i guess something that was straightforward, constant, and simple, is all an amorphous blob now. we joke about it, but underneath it all is not knowing what to do with ourselves. :P
