my fiance and i just broke up after over 4 years of being together. we have a 2 year old, and had just bought our first house together. i am haing the hardest time letting all of this go. any other relationship you just go your separate ways, but with a child its such a huge thing to share, not to mention having to talk and see one another frequently. how do you get over this? so many feelings, and memories with that person and your child just done now! any advice??

He's not the same man you have memories of. People change and not always into better. The reason you split up is a good reason, or you would have still be together and continue to compromise. Some couples can't work out no matter how much they try, so you have the memories of a person you thought he was, not of the one he really is.

breakups are one of the hardest thing to face in life. tyou love a person, be together with him for some time and then the world comes crashing. try to indulge in other activities that can keep your mind off the pain.

yeah best thing is to move on from this because to me it seems like he didnt even want to marry you in the start of things , 4years with a 2 year old and still no marriage offically ? seems to me he was stringing you along ..but jsut take one day at a time, and yes the only connection you guys have is a 2 year old and that should be the only connection
