Have you ever had to let a LOVE go, because you know you couldn't give them what they really needed to make them happy and they would be better off with someone who could?

I GIVE UP ON THAT GAME LONG AGO,I JUST MADE THEM READY FOR THE RIGHT ONE,FOR ME I COULDNT WIN ,THEY WOULD THINK I WAS CRAZY AND LEAVE AND THE ONES THAT BELIEVED IN MY WOULD RUN,
-
Yes. I'm actually going through something roughly along those lines right now. It's always hard, and it usually hurts, but it's for the best.
-
Yes I have, but he came back to me. I'd never let him go again unless it was his choice.

How do you know you can't give them what they really need? You might not be in a position to give them everything now, but things change, don't they? If it's material things that they want, then i'd let them go anyway, when i want to be with someone, i want them to be with me too, for the person i am - not what i own. As for the rest of it, i think it's a self-confidence issue if you don't beleive you can give them what they need emotionally/mentally/etc - they might think you have everything they need, have you thought about asking the person you're about to let go?

How do you know that you are not what she/he needs hmmm.. I hate that.. my ex before we broke up told me the reason we broke up is cause he couldn't give me the life I deserved (we were LDR) and that he loved me soo much and will miss me but he beileves there is someone better out there for me.. So Self confidence ABSOLUTELY!!!! He let me go cause he was not ready for me.. You never know what they want until you ASK
-
no, i've had to break up with them for different reasons not based upon love. he cheated.
-
No..never. That would be heartbreaking. However, I trust that was not a unilateral decision..I trust that you and this person talked about it and came to that conclusion..because if you made the decision and cut yourself off from this person withouot discussing it, what if you were wrong? :(
-
Yes. It hurts to this day but it was better for her.
-
yeah.,,,i just did it a month ago.,,i just tell him that were done and maybe we were not really meant for each other.
-
yes we are back now but my bf has a baby and he wanted to try to get back with the mom we both loved each other and hated to let go but i supported him and told him it was for the best... i mean i was very proud of him for trying to do the right thing. he is 18 she is 17 they are young. he tried for two months. they now cannot stand eachother and him and i are back and happy as ever and way better than before... but it was hard to tell him hey i support you and i want to be friends im ok with it.. when i wanted to scream no you idiot dont i want you for me... but hey it worked out in the end for us and i hope in the future they can at least be friends
-
no, but i had the opposite happen, where i knew that i had to break it off because I would be better off without HIM. He knew it too, but he decided he would try to string me along instead. That went on for a little while, until enough was enough.
-
I had to let go of someone I loved. We were never together, but we were very good friends. He met someone else and I tried to convince him that he had other choices, but he brushed me off. They have a baby together and I still see him every now and then, but not as much. The wound is still open and it hurts.
-
Yeah, actually when i decided to break him up because my love already fades. Without kn0wing he had already an0ther gf.. I felt insult cause i never break him up yet but then i found he had an0ther girl. I realized it was much better at least i wouldn't hurt him.
-
Yes. Complicated situation. He hates me now bc he doesnt understand my explanation.
-
I let her go , dont know about the later part though :(
