It brings out some thoughts about my last short lived 9 month relationship.
Much like you, it was an easy breakup, although I stressed so much before it happened. I do hope she has found her "happily ever after" as her parents had planned for her. She was a good person, but like FFG, there was a missing connection between us.
But...and there is always a but...you will rebound and find another good man. You are a good woman with good morals. You live in an area with a lot of opportunity for happiness. You are lucky to be in such a beautiful marine environment and close to one of the great cities of the USA.
As for seeing him again...I was friends with her for a short time following the breakup. But, we fell out of contact. Maybe that was best as I hoped it allowed her to move on much quicker.
Just keep doing your studies for now. Be the best mom for your kids as you have always been. And you will be surprised what comes your way.
