Midlife wife crisis14

[Wolfman]

Well it looks like so many of you were right. Jumping into another it not going to last. So after 1.5 years with my GF I broke up with her yesterday. There was just too much arguing. She had a lot of insecurities and our age difference started to come out. Things that she would get upset about I don’t see as a problem. I know if I was her age then maybe. I hurts a lot. But now it’s time for me. Time to work on me and get use to being alone. I really wanted it to work so bad. I tried so hard. But I had no voice in the relationship. AnytiMe I would voice my opinion on things there would be an argument. Which would wind up me agreeing with everything she said and apologizing for how i made her feel. It’s hard to feel like there is hope when a relationship for 19 years failed and now this. I definitely have grown, this forum has taught me so much, yet it was not enough to save it. I am certainly not saying I am perfect, I made a lot of mistakes and tried to correct them. But then she would complain about something else. Honestly I am going to need time for myself. I am going to be so afraid to put myself out there again.

For anyone who is new and reading my post or posts, listen to the veterans here. Everything they said was right and came true. I thought I knew better, I thought I would be the exception. Well guess what, i wasn’t. What they tell us to do is HARD, but it works and they are right. I really hate myself for not listening and doing what I was told. My emotions ran the show and I got hurt, hurt my kids and hurt my family. Now hurt my GF. I acted out of fear and it got me nowhere. I am a fool and this just stinks. Sorry for the rant but I am hurting and down right now.
