David and I have ended our almost four year relationship.
Yes, it is sad to see something I've worked so hard on. But don't be sad for me at all.
Over the past year I've been making changes that liberate me and pursuing things I'm passionate about. I've been running marathons and going after new career options. I've become a yogi and committed to a vegan diet.
The one thing that hadn't caught up was my relationship. Being with David was never bad, but I've known for a while that we just aren't right for each other. There were things I needed and wasn't getting, but it was comfortable so I stayed.
Then I had a telling conversation when I was getting my hair cut Thursday. I suddenly spoke the things I'd been feeling for so long. Hearing those things come out of my mouth proved to me that I only had one choice.
David was on the same page with me. We love each other as people, but we know we're just not right for each other. We both deserve so much more.
It was definitely a sad day, but I had this odd sense of peace within. I know we made the right decision and there is no questioning it. Now that I've let go of this stagnant part of my life I can pursue even better things for myself.
It feels amazing to know that I can now get everything I want.
No more settling... in any part of my life.
