Are there any out there? =( I feel so bad, I broke up with my boyfriend after attemping to give our relationship a second try, it just isn't working! I feel horrible for doing this to him on Christmas Day but I have no choice. He must feel 100 X worse...and I can't do anything about it =(

I feel really bad. Never expected something like this to happen during a time where you spend quality time with your loved ones... Are there any others out there right now?? =)

If you dumped him there must be a reason..maybe he was not treating you right,you were not happy,whatever the reason is,don`t beat yourself up over it...enjoy the time with your family,friends,and dating and having new sex partners in the new year!easier said than done i know!

I actually just broke up with my ex a few days ago after trying to give it a second chance. He just had the same issues as before and although he knew he had issues he never made an attempt to change them. It was fun to see my family for Christmas but honestly the holidays sort of bum me out. My ex texted me today just saying he hoped I was having a good Christmas with my family. I replied and just said that I hoped he was too.

So yes, it sucks. I'm trying to focus on new things for 2006.

Yeah its nice that although we have our little issues we should set them aside, think positive and spend time with loved ones! Another year is almost over so lets make new beginnings and yes that includes new relationships to look forward to as others has mentioned! =)

I wonder what issues that you wanted your boyfriend to address that caused you to break up with him. I approach relationships with the expectation of either accepting who the person is or not since the only person who I can change is myself.

Curious,
