Best Thing About Breaking Up

For me, I have done some soul searching these past few weeks after my past two failed relationships (dated a guy for a year up until February and then dated another guy for 4 months up until a few weeks ago, both were classic commitment phobes). I am seriously contemplating a move to another city (Chicago) this summer, there are several reasons I want to go there in particular, one of which is the opportunity to try and do something I've always wanted to do (I actually almost did this a few years ago but did not and then I met my first ex and sort of lost track of my direction). I realized I have not been happy with MY life and that's also probably why I've also been attracting these not so fantastic guys. It is wierd, when I think about moving and starting anew and doing these things I don't even care about him anymore or actually even dating at the moment.
I was just curious if anyone had these sort of "realizations" after a break up and what you did about them..

I lost weight.. I am smaller than I was in high school.
I went back to school... I would not be able to get a Masters and have a high maintance boyfriend.
I don't go out to eat as much, so I am saving money.
I guess it has its perks! :)
However, the list of things I miss could go on and on....
-I lost weight
-I found a hobby
-I am happier (no one is calling me names)
-I sleep better
-I can have sexual fantasies with other men without feeling guilty.
-People is actually telling me that I look better (I am not depressed all the time)
-The future does not look as depressing as of yesterday...
-I can see that he took me for granted and made a HUGE mistake LOL
Should I say more?
