I agree with everyone's perspective on divorce/ ending a LTR. It's freaking awful. Though my ex and I have remained the best of friends (which really freaks people out for some reason) the pain of what happened, of all that we went through, will never go away and I am still haunted by who those people were (by people I mean me and him.) It changed me. Not for the better. I'm just now learning how naïve I was when I was younger. I thought the world held great things, full of laughter and fun. Maybe I was a bit sheltered, I don't know. Maybe I never grew up.
But I remember all the really good things. That's why we are still friends. We're damn good at being friends, not so good at marriage. I doubt I'll ever get married again.
