Blogging is weird. I was just thinking about all the things that share here and how I try very hard to be as genuine as possible. I want to show you who I really am through my writing and the things that I share, however I also think it's important to keep some things private. So...That would explain this next bit of news being a bit of a surprise to you.
Over the past few weeks, I started to feel less than happy in my relationship. Travis is great. He's an amazing person with incredible and big dreams. But we could not stop arguing. It was like neither of us could do anything right. It was getting to the point where I was thinking more negative thoughts about our relationship that positive ones. I wasn't talking about my problems and I was honestly just feeling like we weren't fitting together like we did when we first met. The big thing for me was I felt like our personalities were clashing in a way that was not likely to ever change...
So we broke up.
And I'm sad. Even though it was pretty much my idea...It's hard to walk away from someone that you really care for, but I truly think this will be best for both of us. We had so much fun together over the past six months and went through a whole lot more than I ever thought possible, but I suppose we just have to look at it as a learning experience. I learned so much from Travis and I'm so happy to have met him. I hope that he feels the same way...It's truly too bad that it didn't work out.
I just hope that he will find it in his heart not to be mad and just realize that we'll both be better off this way...

I"m sorry. It sounds like you did the right thing though. So many people stick with it longer than necessary and it just makes it all worse.
It was hard, but I really think we will both be happier in the long run. That doesn't mean I'm not sad about it by any means though.
Girl, I have totally been there. That is why I ended my last relationship after dating him for round 2. We would fight all the time...I was tired from working long hours and he was being so nosey into what I did outside of our relationship like he didn't trust me. In the long run, I think he was hurt at first but I just felt it wasn't fair to him if I no longer felt what I did in the beginning. It stinks at first but in the end, you'll both move on and find a happily ever after!
Aw, Katie, I am so sorry! Break-ups suck, but I am so proud of you for following your heart and making the choice for yourself! It's so empowering to hear about women taking control of their relationships, even if it is hard. I had a terrible break up with the guy I dated before I met Dustin, and I know how painful it is to let it all go. Just try to focus on all the things you have learned from your relationship; I look back at that relationship now and am so grateful for it because it helped me find Dustin! Hang in there, sweet girl!
Well luckily it wasn't really all that messy. It was just...time. I just know that we will both be happier this way. I hope that HE figures out that it's for the best. I truly loved him but I suppose not all good things are meant to last forever. I'm so glad that all of you are so supportive of my decision. It's making me feel better.
Yeah, that is pretty much exactly what was going on with us...It was becoming more trouble that it was worth. I wanted it to work so badly. But I also wanted him and I BOTH to be with people who we could get along with and stop hurting each other. It's hard, but I'm just glad that I was mature enough to make this decision instead of just sticking it out and staying unhappy.
