You seem very level headed and like you’re making a well thought out decision.
You know what you want and you need time to rediscover who you are and what makes you passionate.

I went from living with a boyfriend to living on my own to living with my parents. That was the hardest transition ever but it helped me to prepare for being on my own permanently.
And it helped me to appreciate being on my own.
Which I did, but didn’t, prior to that.

Good luck with everything! I can’t wait to read more about you

Thank you, I know that there are still some hard times ahead and I didn’t come to these decisions lightly. I’m finding that while part of me is manic and scattered when it comes to focusing on what I want and what I have to do to get there I’m remarkably calm. Let’s hope it stays that way.

Ex moved out about three weeks after the “news” and while I was confounded, I was truly grateful. I had never lived alone and I was a bit scared about the idea of being in the house by myself. And you know what? I LIKED it. I may have even loved it. Being there without the constant need to feel like I was filling a hole – whether it be with noise, or conversation, or WHATEVER – was blissful. It was one of the best things I did. I think you’ll find so too. Good luck!

Thank you, I’ve lived sort of alone before, I shared a house with a few other people, but it’s not exactly the same. It will be an adventure one that might end with me buying an electric jar opener and a new electric drill.

YAY YOU!!! When I split from my partner, I felt a lot of the same feelings you listed above.

Big Hugs,

Thanks, it’s great to know all these things I’m going through others have been there and lived to tell the tale.
