My partner Lake dumped me two days ago. This morning they messaged asking to talk, saying they made the wrong choice. I am going to hear them out cause not knowing where they are at will be harder on me. Will update post-convo.
We broke up because they said they needed space to be single and figure out how to be with themselves and figure out what they want. They needed healing space post-divorce after their 9 year marriage ended and to figure out being a single parent again. They were not able to show up in the ways I needed/wanted in a relationship and I was unhappy. Tho prior to about 4ish months ago, we were happy and things were great.
I cant help but wonder if perhaps there is some middle ground? some way of being together *differently* that might work better with what we want/need now? I miss them already but I have always thought getting back with an ex is a bad idea and swore I would never do it again.
I could use some outside perspective.
