Constant guilt

Have you ever felt so much guilt for something you know was the right thing to do?

It's been 2 years since I broke up with a guy. He was a really good guy that loved me and cared about me. I wasn't feeling the same way even though I loved him as a person. I knew I didn't want to be in the relationship anymore and had thought about it and tried to make it work for a long time. I have felt guilty ever since I broke up with him and it makes me so depressed. I have broken up with others before and it doesn't bother me in the slighest bit. I don't understand why this one person continues to haunt my thoughts.

Does anyone know why I am feeling like this??

We can’t always understand where feelings stem from but regardless they are there and any feelings you have are valid. It sounds like you are feeling guilty for feeling guilty. Compounded guilt-that’s got to be tough.

I think you said it yourself... you have guilt over it.. perhaps because you hurt his feelings and aren't that kind of person to do that...yet no amount of guilt will change the past and if you didn't have the same feelings you were right to move forward.... you never know what tomorrow will bring your way...try your best to let go of it.... I wish for you peace of mind...

So you were true to yourself and did what was right for both of you! Yes it hurts and we all feel guilty if we have a conscience and feelings! I never get involved with the intent in any way of hurting someone’s feelings including my own. I think it’s better to get out sooner then to hold each other back from inevitably moving on. I was told recently my past is just that I can’t change it now and it’s not going to happen again so I need to let go as hard as that seems it makes sense!

I loved a woman very very much but I wasn’t right for her many reasons

She had to let me know the justvfriends john and I had to honor that as someone who does care

Perhaps u feel multiple things like relief u were honest and feel guilty for that feel selfish which u weren’t because u

Know one can not force oneself to live an untruth and perhaps are a caretaker and worry irvfeel responsible or concerned for him as a person

After all u did bond and takes time to grow apart or notvhave bind feelings even though u dint want to be at level five million u dint wish him

I’ll will but how to reaedtsblish and. Ommunicate

Hey can we be at level eight

Or perhaps u were rejected innyurvlife and u dint want him

To feel rejected but don’t want to mislead him

Donthe right hard thing?

Best wishes always
