Moving On, Starting over

Have anyone of you ever shared your life with someone for many many years only to find out that perhaps he/she is not the right person for you. However, by the very many years, in different situation you have obligations. Perhaps some of you are married, some with kids, some dated for a long time, some engaged perhaps, but whatever the reason you have been together for so long, how do you just walk away over night and expect everything to be the same?

I had so many friends with different incidents. There was a couple who was dating for 7 years, got married and got divorce 2 years later. Another couple who dated for 9 years then broke-off (we all thought they were going to get married!). Another couple I know of, who has been dating for years, they trust each other, the girl swears by the bf never cheating on her, only to catch him red-handed one day. One last one is my friend who dated the same girl for 13 years, married and have a kid and yet they got divorced. So how do you this is the RIGHT PERSON for you and whatever you have is FOREVER?

So back to my post title, how does one moves on and start all over again. What happens to the routines that you've been doing for years? What happens to each other families and their routines? What about the pillow you are so used to sleep on in your other half's house? What about the place that you always go to eat together at? Do you not go there anymore? What about the things you shared and bought together? What about what abouts? Back to my posting a while ago, where is my book of answers?

So moving on and starting over, you need to pick up the pieces, put it back together and learn to take your baby steps all over again down the new path. So if when you stumble and fall, you have pick yourself up again.

So right now I am picking up all the pieces and putting them together again and then start all over again right at the starting line.

Totally understand how u feel...but life goes on Spikey!

Well u may have been too comfortable with the routine and refuse to let go, but let me ask u this : if u seriously think u dont love this person anymore and this person doesnt really "love" u anymore, would u want to stay on with the comfort routine or would u rather walk out from there quickly, pick up the pieces & start your life all over again, hoping that you will find another Mr. Right soon?
