Eckstream, sorry about that - that's a long time to be with someone and then have to part ways, but hopefully (if you don't already), you will eventually see that it was for the best. There are plenty of great young ladies out there... don't rush yourself - take the time to find the right one. There's a saying that says that what doesn't kill us only makes us stronger - you can use what you've learned through this to make things better than before, even if it may not seem that way right now. Good luck!
