Life waits for no one and no one gets out alive. I spent 7 months in a relationship that didn't make particularly happy last year. I figured that if I held out maybe something would change and it would become what I wanted. Of course that is a very naive approach, it never changed and I woke up realizing that I had wasted 7 months of my life for nothing. I do not want to do that again.
I can't sit around waiting to live a life with Matt when the time is right. I can't have an existence and put my life on hold, I can't wake up months from now realizing that time has slipped by with me being unhappy.
I've found myself in many ways right back where I was a year ago only this time it's clear to me that I need to make changes instead of just letting life happen around me. This time I need to make the necessary changes to a relationship in order to be happy instead of waiting for it to change. If it's goodbye then it's goodbye. It will hurt but it'll hurt less to walk away now then 7 months from now. I'll shed my tears but continue on my journey forever learning about life.
