Do you regret letting someone go

I was never one to push away people. My problem was letting them go when they weren't good for me or that they were quietly just letting me go live my own life. My last long term relationship fizzled out that way until I said enough is enough. I'm not going to be ignored and disrespected, so I made it known that she's on her own and that I'm not gonna be around trying to beg for a relationship that's already dead (her choice in that for pretending I don't exist just because we had to leave a dangerous situation, and had to be physically apart for a little while). Of course, she made it out to me being a jerk and that I left her because everyone is just a jerk towards her and is out to get her. Victim mentality just to hide all her lies. I think she just wanted a solid reason to leaving me, and I gave her one for my own well-being. Do I regret saying anything now? Absolutely not. I haven't dated since then because I have to get my life together and repair what she destroyed. Because of my commitment to her, my credit is screwed up, I don't have a vehicle, had ended up homeless for a period of time, had no phone to contact anyone, and I'm just fortunate that I have family to fall back on. I don't talk about that openly except here just to make a point. Sometimes it's just better to be alone than with someone who you can't trust or isn't going to make an equal effort for you. Those people I'd push away for the right reasons. Who knows you may have dodged a bullet? Idk.

At the end of it, those were my choices that made me let them go. There were moments I wondered if I could have done better in keeping them but with boundaries. But as I couldn't or didn't want to at the time, I was led to what is now.

Now, no, I don't regret it. But I try to learn from the past. So in the future, I can do better. When it comes to people, I can only get a certain fill of someone until I'd want space again. For healthy interactions, I need me time too. So I focus on that. No use in keeping people around who cannot handle you or who you could not stand.

Access to you should not be a gift for all. It is precious. So give it only to those who are worthy.

I don't know if I'm honest.
The reasons were logical at the time but all to do with needing to work and having to move away for it.

We wrote to each other for a while and had the occasional phone call but eventually it just fizzled out.

Like everyone now in your past, with the creation of social media it's tempting to try looking for them.
But even if you found them, maybe their lives turned out better than you could have hoped. And you'd be happy for them.
But if life has been hard since you, I doubt your inquiry would be welcome

I don't have many regrets when it comes to some people. Had more than a few in my life that weren't good for me and I had to move on for my own well being.

No. If you don't let them go, you get arrested.

Im still not exactly sure why i freaked out at the time. In retrospect i had just eaten wintersquash. I found out more than a year later i am most allergic to winter squash scallops and soy. So maybe my reaction to squash spiked my blood pressure and led to that poor decision. I do regret it though.

I don't purposely push anyone away. However, I may run away or disappear if someone creeps me out. 🤐 Of people I've let slip away over the years, it's more a matter of choosing not to pursue someone when I haven't had a letter or phone call in a while... I have good reasons for just letting them be.

This way younger guy and I used to just hook up he would come over we would take care of each other he would go home and I cut him off because I was looking for my person I so want him back in my life because again he was way younger and it was way fun

I’ve met a couple of amazing women that didn’t get past a long(er) term relationship/affair. It would be nice to still be close friends, but that’s not possible. It would be unfair to our current partners.

I have some old childhood friends that I have lost touch with that I wonder where they are, but as far as relationships go, they ended for a reason.

Everyone that I have let go, I have wanted it for good reasons. I do not care if they forgave me. My life. My choices. I move forward.

No. I only regret the way that I went about it. I never asked for forgiveness. That person doesn’t need a reminder of me.

yell it was a 150 pound Sturgeon, she was full of eggs ,,could had had lots of caviar, if I didn't let her go,,🥺

If anything .. I regret NOT letting someone go when I should have. I think it might be worse.

My best friend and I feel like we should have been together

I dont regret it now. But I did regret it back then.

Of course, but I have moved on

Who ever relates I feel you deeply
