I’m better without them!

Are they better off? I hope so. Only they can answer that.

I know I’m better off without them.

@CookieCrumbs It's kind of you to wish them well.

Most definitely. Everything that was wrong with me in her eyes after 23 years of marriage solidified that. If I'm so bad, then leave.

@Spumoni After 23 years!?! She's a quick learner isn't she 😏

I honestly don’t think so. I think that when you’re with someone who supports and challenges you to be the best version of yourself that your life takes more of an upwards trajectory, so without that from anyone I feel like they’ve floundered.
originnone · 56-60, M
@Ilovestars That's an interesting perspective. Lately, I've been in the "You're fine the way you are" group. I know participation trophies are sort of taboo now, but to me, the idea is to participate, not always to win....

@originnone I absolutely think we should love ourselves the way we are but I also believe that we should try every day to make ourselves a better version. There is a difference between trying to “win” and pushing myself to improve everyday. I think that applies in relationships as well. Your partner should help and give you the support to improve your life where you would like to see improvement. So in the case of my “one who got away”, they have lived in a way where they don’t allow anyone in anymore to help them succeed in life. It’s something I’ve heard them complain about and firmly believe that if we had stayed together (even though that’s not what I would want now) that his life would have taken a much different path with more success and fulfillment as I would have been there to support him in the places he would have liked to improve over the years. I believe in loving yourself the way you are but also wanting to improve day by day. The concepts are synonymous, if you truly love yourself, you’d want the best for yourself and that’s the same when you truly love your partner.

@Ilovestars I probably thought that until my wife's health went bad. Now I just want to make sure she's happy.
helenS · 36-40, F
Certainly better off w/o me, but I'm still on very good terms with most of them.
originnone · 56-60, M
@helenS You must be an incredible person.
helenS · 36-40, F
@originnone Hey thank you 🌷
nameless1 · 36-40
He thinks he is better off without me. So i agree. He is.
originnone · 56-60, M
@nameless1 It sounds like he let you get away AND is foolish.
nameless1 · 36-40
@originnone 🤷‍♀️ he pushed me as far away as he could
originnone · 56-60, M
@nameless1 idiot
Yes, because we lived too far apart and neither could move.

It's hard being alone but it's far more difficult being married.
He didn’t. He’s at work.
originnone · 56-60, M
@Pinkstarburst He made the right choice.
Yes, because If I wasn't good enough for them, i shouldn't waste my tears on them. They're better off with second best
originnone · 56-60, M
@Bexsy What a kick ass response! They ain't worth the salt in your tears!
WaryWitchWandering · 36-40, F
I thought so.
WaryWitchWandering · 36-40, F
@originnone Its not like that
originnone · 56-60, M
@WaryWitchWandering Yeah....I know nothing about it really. I just hope you're both happy.
WaryWitchWandering · 36-40, F
Yep…
Not who it should.be
SW-User
Apparently not .
originnone · 56-60, M
I would guess not.
originnone · 56-60, M
@BarbossasHusband Based on your posts, I find that hard to believe. You seem alright!
Azlotto · M
She was better off before she met me...And more better off now.
originnone · 56-60, M
@Azlotto You're probably not giving yourself enough credit.
iamonfire696 · 41-45, F
I’m better of without him
NinaTina · 26-30, F
Never had one to get away
originnone · 56-60, M
@NinaTina That's because you're incredible!
