Fight for Relationship or Let It Go
My boyfriend and I were doing a long distance relationship and I felt like it was too much for him. I was supposed to move to where he lives this summer, but my plans changed and I won't be moving until next year.
I don't know how to tell him that I won't be moving back. He told me that if I wasn't moving back this summer, then the distance would be too much for him.
I was scared to lose him so I broke up with him. I told him he didn't do anything wrong, I just didn't want to keep him waiting any longer. As much as it hurt me to say it, I told him I thought he would be better off with someone else who isn't so far away.
He told me he doesn't want anyone else, but I personally think he can be a lot happier with someone closer to him. So right now, we're sort of taking a break. He asked me if I was going to mess around with other people. I told him no, I wasn't, then I asked him if he was and he just replied "you told me to." That is true but it hurt so much to hear it.
I'm so confused. I know that I don't want to lose him for good, but I don't want to hold on to him and continue to hurt him because we don't see each other as often as we would like. I have other dudes that want to go with me, but my heart just wont let go of my ex.
I don't know whether I should fight for this relationship or just let it go and let him be happy with some else. Help!
