She’s madly in love with a man she knows is no good for her. Some days are good, but other days are not. Should she stick it out or let him go?
Hey Bert Show,
I’m from the UK. Not sure if you guys even take on stories or issues from across the pond, but I’m taking a shot I’m a 30 year old single mother and little over a year ago I met the love of my life. He’s 34 and we met on tinder.
Not really looking for love, I met him and I never believed in love at first sight, but as soon as I saw him in the flesh, it hit me like a train. Things escalated quickly and we decided to be exclusive and we entered into a relationship.
I’ve never met someone who makes me feel the way he did, he made me feel beautiful, we had intelligent and meaningful conversations. And he played my piano like Beethoven!
We even started writing an erotic novel together! However, it seems his expectations of a relationship were way too high. We argued and when it was bad it was really, really bad. He never ever laid a hand on me or threatened to. It was just the anger on both sides that made it awful. We talked about it afterwards and we would work out what went wrong and how to be better for each other, which worked over time and we got along so much better for it.
But he and I knew that sooner or later we’re gonna fall out again, and we both felt like we were walking on eggshells. He made me a better person and I can never thank him enough for that and showed me that I am beautiful and I am worth so much more than I ever gave myself credit for.
We keep deciding to part ways and one of us breaks and messages the other. I love this man with every fibre of my being and I would have married him if he asked. Am I crazy? I need to get over him, but I feel like nobody else will ever compare with him?
He once said to me “your heart understood mine” and never a truer word was spoken.
What can I do to get over this guy?
