When the relationship kicks in, you see each other’s flaws, and the spark disappears. If you don’t actively address issues and resolve them along the way, the relationship slowly falls apart. Sometimes the love just dies. When you can’t get the love you want, you slowly build walls to protect yourself from getting hurt and end up becoming distant without actually breaking things off....

It was one of the last straws that broke up our year-and-a-half relationship, and a few days later I ended things. At the time, I felt so incredibly validated and excited about what the future could hold. I made it through that terrible experience and was brave enough to walk away from someone I knew wasn’t right for me.
