Anybody ever end a relationship and feel both good and bad about doing it? seems like doing the right thing isn't often black or white.

I wanted to also say that I did end one 5 year relationship that I didn't miss a single moment after. My son's dad was verbally/mentally abusive to me. I was relieved to be done with him.

It is kind of hard not too,,often lot of good memories ,but life changes for both parties and we must move on

Yes, but I felt bad about hurting my partner’s feelings, not about ending the relationship.

Yes. However, when I was dumped (‘asked to move out&rsquo😉 it only felt bad. Seems the perspective of the one doing the dumping, seeing life beyond the relationship and deeming the break worthwhile, provides the good feelings, like pride, resilience, courage, hope

Thus far I have ended all of my relationships and I have only felt somewhat bad about the long term one. Though it had to be done and was a looong time coming, it still made us both cry as I did it. 😟

Holy feedback Batman! Thanks for all the comments. I was/am sad/happy about ending a FWB + relationship even though she had ended it 3 times before. I was afraid it was my White Knight syndrome kicking in but it seems to be a universal emotional reaction.

Glad you posted this question. Nice to see that other people feel the same way. It seems like when I was younger the decision was more black and white.

Yes, last July I asked my boy friend to move out. When the day came for him to start staying at his place, I cried. He asked me why I was the one upset when I broke up with him and asked him to move out. Just because you end it with someone does not mean you did not or even still do love them, it means you were not good for each other and you need to move on, and that can hurt.

I remember once my girlfriend told me "I don't think we are working out". I was so relieved, it was exactly what I was thinking but was too chickedshit to say. I was filled with love and admiration but still ready to move on.

Of course, the relationship would never have started unless there had been something good involved and it would not have ended without some bad things happening.

It seems?

I can’t imagine myself being in a relationship so toxic that I wouldn’t feel bad about ending it, but I’m sure it happens when domestic abuse is involved.

Did that 2 years ago. I feel sad about some things. I do feel the loss, but I am happier now in many important ways.
