I Would Rather Be Alone Than Be With the Wrong Person

It's time for me to put myself first. I've given this a good run. It's been 7 months and I'm still unhappy. I prioritized a relationship over my own feelings and tried to make something work that I wasn't even sure I wanted from the beginning.

It's time to take a break now. It's time to breathe and return to myself.

I think at this point I owe it to myself and to him to leave. By remaining in the relationship I am injuring myself and growing in resentment toward him. I am continuing to plan my goals and plans around a life I don't want. I am forgetting who I am, sacrificing things I love, and isolating myself from the people that I used to hangout with... all to please this person. All so that our relationship can work.

Ugh... can someone just write a post about what I healthy relationship dynamic looks like? I need help.

It seems to me you've got all the answers. You know what happened, you know what you need to do.

Fall in love with your SELF. If you're looking for a soul mate, mate with your soul. You'll see the reflections of those things in the people you meet. Your choice will be clear.
