Sorry to hear you are going through this. But, you might be right about better now than later after years and years of unhappiness.

While I know you are SURE this is love, it doesn't sound like it. It may be intense LIKE, and need? The bad thing is, you are both too young to commit to a lifelong event. The good thing is, you are both young enough to learn from this relationship and move on.

There ARE others "out there" who do know how to care about another person, not having to be put first. IMHO you should work on yourself. Find out who you really are, what you really like, what kind of life you really want. I don't think this will be a quick decision: how can you possibly understand all of what life offers???

Again, I'm sorry you are hurting. It's important to be your own person that doesn't need another to feel whole. Once you become that person, it will be easier for you to identify a mate with the same attribute.

Perhaps you can stay friends for now? But I would chalk this relationship up, you deserve better.
