So i have a girlfriend on and off for over a year now. Around the same time last year she cheated on me so we broke up until around October last year. Since then we have been getting on pretty well. I went on a holiday to Greece last week and i really enjoyed it. I stayed at a hotel and at some point got talking to one of the girls there who works at the hotel resturant. Now its not really cheating in its most major form as we only kissed, but its still bad right? Problem now is, since returning to the UK from Greece i realise i havnt missed my girlfriend at all. Nor have i missed anything in this country to be honest. I loved the holiday, awesome weather, nice beaches and everyone there is so more relaxed and nice. There are many Italian girls there and they are so different to English girls. Look gorgeous and have something about them that i really like. I also seemed to get a lot more attention from girls at the resort compared to what i seem to get in the UK. Anyway yea, i fuckin love it in Greece and at some point i would love to take a year out and live there. Just for the experience. But what should i do now, do i keep it quiet or tell her what happened and explain that im not really that happy with her anymore?
Call it off if you're not happy, theres no point in hanging around someone who doesn't make you happy.
I suppose but im not that happy in general now. I cant stop thinking about this girl i met, which is stupid because i may never see her again. But it opened up my eyes to what is out there if i just take that step and move away. Though im 18 so a little young to make that kind of decision. Im just sick of all the scenery and people and places around me.
sounds like the experiences from your trip just gave you some much needed perspective - do yourselves both a favour and cut her loose, or at the very least, turn it into an open relationship....the world is your oyster, baby - don't settle for mediocre "because it's there"
Yea i guess you are all right. Not looking forward to it though. She talks about when we will get our own place and where we will get married and stuff. And i just kind of try to change the subject because its extremely naive to think about these things when we are this young. I'll give it another week or two just to make sure i want to end it. Problem with me is i get ideas into my head and then soon after i just dont want to do them anymore. This might happen with the Greece thing. I get a one week taste of the country and now i really want to move there for a while.
Don't get saddled too young. You'll end up being unfaithful, regretting what you could have had. Life's a smorgasboard. Don't just pick McD's for consistency. Take some time. Leaving is easier if you don't make it an issue. You just have to stand firm in your commitment to life, rather than life in prison.
