Is it bad that in this next season of life, I just want to be single? I’m planning to break up with my boyfriend but I feel guilty. He’s great, but our relationship feels stuck. I’m kinda over it atp and I just want to be alone. Rn I’m just so over men.

I hear you. When a relationship starts to feel like it’s holding you in place instead of helping you grow, it makes total sense to want space. Wanting to be single doesn’t mean you failed or that your overreacting it means your paying attention to yourself. You’re allowed to choose peace, clarity, and freedom. You don’t owe anyone a lifetime of trying if your heart isn’t in it anymore. Take the time you need to figure out what you want, not what anyone expects from you.

Thank you, we’ve been together for years now and I just feel like I’ve wasted so much time. But I’ve grown, I know even more now of what I want in a partner, and what I don’t want in a partner.

It sounds incredibly painful to feel that time was wasted, but the self-awareness you've gained is invaluable. That growth isn't a waste; it's a foundation for a much better future relationship.
