Before I read your longer email, I'll say this: the pressure is from the belief that I could still be dating and me "mr. right" or take time off to explore where this is going with ExBF -

I did want another child.

And I do feel pressure to work on things with him, in a way. I'm just being honest.

I know that doesn't make sense, no one will agree with that, I should just forget it. But, here's the thing - It's true for me. And I'm being honest.

So maybe it's not as much pressure as I imagined.
