it was the same for me,.. I felt I was merely doing my girlfriend a
disservice by putting her in a situation where she herself could do nothing
but try to change herself to accomodate me, which I would say is not what she
wanted, but again, me opening my big mouth only caused her to try and try
harder to change herself

that's the biggest part, that's the part that will not do.
I cannot accomodate her energetic clutching needs, .. I simply cannot be what
I am not.. my silence eventually broke us apart.. in the end I didn't have to
say anything.. she knew "it was over".. to her it had to seem, like only one
thing.. "she wasn't good enough" and me.. I simply had to shut my mouth. The
more I said the more chaos I would cause. If I tried to tell her she was good
enough, then why didn't I want to be with her, the way she wanted me to? But
it's over now. I can accept that and move on. And learning lessons myself. I
put up a fight to the very end. In the end my worse fear was that I was doing
the wrong thing. After the same issues of clutching occured I could see
clearly that I could not be pigeon holed into the role she needed for a fair
relationship and still be truthful to my spiritual path. Our break up in the
end came without any words, .. I merely stopped re acting to her needs for
clutching,.. and after having been through the same cycle so many times.. she
let go.. and it was over.

I know that feeling.

Guess we're in the same boat. You tried to tell me Isis but I wasn't ready to
listen until it happened to me. Until it was truly over. I'll always love
her. She is so precious to me as a person. But she doesn't understand that
kind of perspective quite yet. Perhaps I will see her again if our paths
cross. I believe they will.
Peace,
