Relationship Advice - When Being Dumped Should Make You Happy

No one likes being dumped. But, believe it or not, there are times when it's the best thing that can possibly happen to you (really?). Why would this be the case? Because there are times when some relationships are shaky at best, and if you had really taken a good, long look at the relationship earlier, you would have realized it didn't really have a future.

While this isn't always the case, there are instances when breaking up is really the very best thing that can happen to you:

When you analyze the other person's personality, habits, weaknesses, and bad points... you can now see they really weren't the type of person you wanted to deal with day in and day out, for the rest of your life. In the beginning, they were able to hide these negative points from you because the relationship was new and fresh. But as you began to learn more about them, you realized they were seriously flawed. It had been a constant barrage of one embarrassing, frustrating and aggravating experience after another. This should help you to realize life is too short to live that way.

You now realize your partner was very controlling. Whether they were aware of it or not, they were a very dominating person when it came to you. You always felt stifled and reserved when they were around. It seemed as if you were constantly losing ground in your life and had to give up much that was important to you in order to keep them "happy". And it seemed as if the more control they took over you, the more they wanted from you.

You can now pursue more of your passions, dreams, wishes and goals. Ideas or anything you are excited about and thinking about pursuing for the first time, are now within your reach. It wasn't that your partner was so much denying you the pleasure of experiencing these things, but they would discourage you in such a way you wouldn't have enjoyed them, even if you had pursued them.

Now, you are able to focus on yourself, who you are and who you want to grow to be. It seemed you were spending so much of your time and effort into trying to please your partner you lost sight of taking care of yourself. It's perfectly acceptable to want to do bits and pieces for others, but it isn't acceptable if they take up so much of your time you never have any left over for yourself.

Now, you can take all the time you like; time that was being unnecessarily taken away from you previously, and place it on yourself and your dreams.
