    I completely agree. Nobody is perfect...not her and certainly not me.

    In so many ways, big and small, she is great. She is fun, she is athletic, she has a nice perspective on things, she challenges me in a lot of ways (e.g., I never really recycled before I was with her) and we have a bunch of shared interests.

    What's bad though is her selfishness. To put things into perspective, I have an 8 year old son who is the light of my life. I love and adore him and because our home and his mother and school are here in San Diego, I too am obligated to be in San Diego...

    ...but knowing this, she still wanted me to move away so that she could go to school at UCLA. Moving away would cause me to forfeit all rights to him. I would be abandoning a perfect angel who had done nothing to deserve such horrible treatment. Imagine how his father abandoning him would ruin his life. She didn't care about ruining the life of a human being though - she just wanted to do what she wanted to do.

    In my opinion, that is selfishness to the point of being a monster and honestly, thinking about it, I really don't know why I am so mourning the loss of her and this relationship.

    • I like it how you wrote about her having an ex husband and not mentioning you had a son.rafalski
    • Yeah, that was a big point.
      I don't completely blame her though. Both of you were going in different directions.

    • Not like having a son was a bad thing, not at all, just interesting how incomplete the story was :)rafalski
