You ever loved someone so much that you had to let them go?

Question

You Had to let them go , because you knew you couldn’t give them what they really wanted? Not every relationship that ends , turns to enemies , I have a handful of ex girlfriends’ that I loved and cared about but I had to let them go , because I couldn’t meet their expectations. I consider myself a very content guy , a hard worker that will give the shirt off of my back to someone that gives back the same in return , but one thing I can’t stand is selfish people , or people that are never satisfied with what they have in front of them , that always complain and make comments that they want those things or need those things while looking at you to fulfill that for them. Yes I am talking about females’ that I was with So if I didn’t fulfill whatever it was they wanted then she would compare me to someone else or make comments saying my friend doesn’t have to work , her partner provides for her , and they do this and that blah blah blah. When a girl compares me to another guy , she basically dug her own grave with me , and I lose respect for her. And I will say , I want you to go find that because I know I am not capable of doing that for you , so go find your rich man that can take care of you , I love you enough that I want to see You happy. So we are best to end things and just remain friends’ . I have dumped a few girls’ this way , Am I wrong to do so? Because I want a partner , not a user that expects me to constantly meet their expectations? So Have you ever loved someone so much that you had to let them go?

Yes. She had uterine cancer and had to undergo surgery, Chemo an Rad. She politely cut me loose but invited me to dinner 3 years later. I was getting married to The Ex from Hell 4 weeks later. She still looked like Serina Williams.

Her young daughter was present. She (lover) hinted about resuming. I had to tell her what was about to happen and we parted again amicably. I knew I was making a mistake and I wept half way home (50miles). Big boys shouldn't cry.

At 77 and with four marriages, one active now, I have been in love/infatuated only twice in my life. I wasn't married to either. The first was my high school girlfriend who (!) found me in the internet and called me in the evening a month ago after 57 years. Back in the day, she looked like Mia Farrow.

She was widowed last year. We carefully discussed the past but not the breakup. She was cheating while I was in The Nam. Yep. I misted up again after the call. Fortunately, my wife wasn't nearby. I have to stop doing this, but twice in 60 years isn't too bad.

The other was "Serina. None the less, it was good to be so much in love you want to explode and not so good when you want go to the emergency room when it ends.

Been there! My then husband said he needed to find out what he was missing and sleep with other people for 3 months and then come back and try and fix our marriage so I filed for divorce. So I let him go. At the time I loved him a lot obviously we were married but if he thought we'd better apart then it is what it is. Now im happily divorced and he's making some other girl miserable
