you're not a lost cause, you just know what you want...i went throught this a little while ago... I met this great guy, things seemed to be going well, you know in the beginning everything is perfect but then i started to feel stressed by all negative things going on in the relationship, most of the negativity coming from HIM, then I realized was it really worth it? Why must I be dragged down on account of him? I deserve better and i stopped everying like BAM, it was OVER! no questions! The hardest thing about dating is finding the right person you can click with, and in the beginning everyone "clicks" because both of you are trying so hard to make things work, but eventually people's true sides come out and you realize what a basket case you're stuck with and how it's affecting you negatively...dealing with being alone is never easy, but it's better than being stuck with someone who isn't right for you
