Left 5 year relationship
I can’t tell if I’m regretting leaving the relationship or if I just feel alone. As of right now I have a temporary protection or for me and my kids, meaning I’m taking care of them all by myself. It’s hard, I’m lonely. I met a guy at work who’s way older and we’ve hit it off. But I can’t help but feel he is only 60% in it. It makes me feel like shit and wondering if I’m making the right decision here. I’ll be honest I fell out of live awhile ago, which is ultimately what led to the split. But, the single life has me feeling regretful.

It’s so hard, you’re doing a great job. You don’t need some guy who’s only 60% in either. You’re gonna be ok with or without some man. You can make a great life for you and your children. Harness your inner strength 💪
I feel lonely too, sometimes I go back to my journal to remember why I left. I still feel lonely, but I know I made the right decision. If you fell out of love, (I did too), you might have stuck around because it wasn't great, but it was convenient and comfortable. You were uncomfortably comfortable.
If he is dangerous and unstable enough that you need a temporary protection for you and your kids, is that somebody that you should be with ? I know it's difficult to be alone, but you definitely made the right decision
