Have you experienced getting out in a relationship while still in love? My previous relationship was simply like that. I had to leave my partner at the height of my love. You see, my partner was seeing another person.. and i cant force myself to continue the love affair when everything was not alright except my love for my partner... You think i made the right decision?

A cruel blow for you but absolutely the right thing to do if you do not accept him playing the field. I mention that because I know of one couple, and have heard about others, where the wife grits her teeth and accepts that her husband is just so attractive that women throw themselves at him and he just cant resist. He has no intention of leaving his wife but he also just can't keep his zip up! haha Me? No. I'm also stunningly attractive but manage to fight them off!!! haha NOT!!

Hello roldango, You did the right choice. You gave her freedom to make her choice without you nagging her. If she comes back and she has not seen that guy then maybe you will know that she is truelly in love with you. You had the grace and fortitude to let her go and that is true friend. Yes, it is very hard but you have think of your happiness now too. The pain will ease over time. AS they saying says you know are over her when something better comes along. Thanks and have a great day Sincerely Unique16

You've definitely made the correct decision. If in the initial stage of loving, such attitude and actions are present, can you imagine how he will treat you as the relationship mellows and isn't in heated attachment and inseparability anymore with the passing of time?

I'd do the same if I were you. Yes you've made the right decision. Even if you decided to stay, it'll only be temporary because time till come when you will get tired of it, of having to put up with his behavior. I guess that's what the song "SOmetimes Love Just Ain't Enough" is for! Know that song?? :D

if you think that she is really seeing another man. then it is right to end your relationship with her. but you have to talk to her first to confirmed about that.

I think you made the right decision. I also recently experienced that last november. I was very much in love with my ex when we broke up. We broke up cause she was cheating on me. Even though I still cared for her so much then I knew that it wouldn't work. I didn't want to be with someone who wasn't faithful to me. I gave her a chance to make it up to me but all she did was make matters worse. So I eventually made the painful decision to let go of her and go on with my life. Although I am still single right now, I am happily dating someone new right now who is much better than my ex. So don't worry about it too much. Things will work out fine.
