I’m curious about men’s experiences rather than advice about my own situation. Do you believe “right person, wrong timing” is a real thing, or do you think it’s usually just a way of softening a breakup? For those who have ended a relationship with someone you genuinely cared about because you felt emotionally unavailable, overwhelmed, insecure about where you were in life, or felt like you couldn’t be the partner they deserved: What was going through your mind at the time? Did you miss them afterward, or were you mostly focused on getting through your own life? Did you ever regret ending it? If your circumstances improved later, did you ever think about reaching out or reconnecting? Looking back, do you think ending the relationship was the right decision? I’m especially interested in hearing from men who ended otherwise healthy relationships -not because they fell out of love or found someone else, but because they genuinely believed they weren’t in the right place mentally or emotionally to be a good partner. submitted by /u/butterbagel8
