It is done
As much as we agree it was the Right Thing To Do, breaking up still hurts like the dickens. We could have easily let this linger for months yet before calling it off. We were getting some of our needs met by being together; we had companionship, we had someone to talk to and have romantic evenings with, we had someone to share experiences with. But, ultimately, we were vastly different people looking for different things. We have very different personalities; where I am laid back and liking (nay, needing) quiet time, she is very go go go and liking to fill every minute. Hers is a busy life with very few gaps. She was looking for someone to move in and blend into a pseudo-nuclear family unit. I need time to myself. I enjoyed spending evenings with her and her kids, but then I liked to go home to my quiet apartment with the buzzing fish tank.
At the end of the day, there was a great liking between us but not enough commonality to make it last. We've parted friendly and I hope once we get over the hurt a bit we can come back together as friends.
