Dear Holland,
Everyone Gets Dumped At Some Point
Unfortunately, everyone has been dumped before and has had blows
to their self-confidence. Well almost everyone. Well, I know I have.
But the good thing is that we can use those experiences to grow
as people.
Well some of us can. OK, I deal with it by totally blocking out
those ego smashing traumas and forget about the awful witches who
could ever have been evil enough to dump me.
Ending A Relationship Isn't Easy
Anyway, being in a good relationship should have allowed you to
build your confidence up a bit. Now that you know that you want
more from your relationship, you have to be strong enough to go
looking. But it's not an easy thing to end a relationship, as we
have previously discussed at Love and Learn.
It's up to you to figure out if you want to stay in a comfortable
relationship that's not all that you want, or to step out into the
unknown. It's a decision that most of us
have to face, whether we had been previously dumped or not.
Try To Be Considerate of His Feelings Too
Since you know what it is like to be dumped, if you do decide to
end your relationship, you should try to do it so that both you
and your boyfriend can feel as good as possible afterwards. At least
do it so that there is no betrayal of trust involved. Because I
think we are all individuals with possible dumps in our future.
