So it has come to end of a relationship - my own. I am now a single man and it was a mutual decision based on respect for one another.

Congratulations on taking this step forward. It was clear from what I'd seen that you had been unhappy in the relationship as it stood and there was little chance of it becoming what you wanted. Now you're free to pursue what will really give you joy.

I continue to respect you both and am not interested in assigning blame at all; you two learned what you needed to learn from this relationship and it's time for you both to move on.

I too was in a relationship for 13 years, which ended less congenial than yours. But, I hooked up with someone far more compatible (and with a mighty beard) and I don't regret my decision. So, you may also find someone soon who will share a happy future with you. Good luck and best wishes.

I kind of wish some of my relationships ended so well. It's nice when both people can be so mature and understanding. I still have a few exes that I keep in touch with and am on good terms with. It's so much better when it works out that way.

I didn't realize that you two had been together so long and am glad to hear that you're feeling so positive about this change. Sometimes change is good and healthy. :)

Sending you lots of positive energy going forward. I know you're going to be doing just fine no matter where the winds take you.
