I recently ended things with a guy I really liked. We were in an on and off situationship for about 2 years. The only problem was he lived closer to my hometown where I grew up, 4 hours away. Whenever I was in the area, and could see him—it truly felt like he was the one for me. He’d kiss me all over, my neck, my forehead, my face, and my body. It all felt so real when we could be together.

Recently, I started thinking about how he has not once came to visit me. It usually didn’t matter, but I’m currently out of a job and don’t have the funds to keep traveling to him. It was always me making an effort to go see him.

With a heavy heart, I ended things earlier this week and told him things don’t make sense with the distance, even though I enjoy spending time with him a lot. He responded to let me know if I’m in the area, and told me he’d do the same. He even told me to let him know if I wanted to go on a beach trip in the summer.

I guess as I part ways, I’m feeling grief for letting something go that made me feel so happy. Did I do the right thing?
