Today I was sitting in California Coffee with a mate and there were these two cute little 16 year old hippies sitting in the corner, holding hands etc. Watching them (lol in a totally non pedo way) just reminded me of how unhappy I am with my current partner, but I just can't articulate to him why I want to split up.
He's a lovely bloke but he just has character traits I can't deal with...I don't know how to end it, see his last girlfriend dumped him as soon as she got to uni so I know he'd be devastated if I ended things now. On the other hand, I don't feel the same as I used to and don't see why I should wait for the "right moment".
Also, (sorry this is a long post) I'm beginning to think being with Co has made me extremely cynical about guys in general, and it would be a very long time before I had the same level of love and understanding as I have now.
Im sorry about the length, I'm kind of lost and any advice would be great - how to go about ending things, or even improving my attitude on new relationships. Maybe everyone feels the same after they split up with a long term partner, like noone will ever love them again...? I dont know

As for any new relationships.......... the best trick is to not over think things all the time, i tend to do that, i put 2 and 2 together and get 100 million! lol
Besides if your planning to come out of a relationship, its best to be single for a while..........IMO
Hope it works out x
