“inspiring others to maximise their full potential” Relationship Advice
What Would You Do?
Julie and Mark had been together ‘forever’. They started dating, and soon enough fell completely in love with each other. Ready to take the next step, they moved in together, they wanted to make sure they didn’t overwhelm themselves, or put too much pressure on their relationship, so they decided to move in to a share house. They grew closer together and and their relationship grew stronger, but Julie always had an underlying insecurity. When they were together, everything was perfect, but when they were apart, nothing Julie did could get rid of a feeling, or hidden fear she had that she couldn’t quite put her finger on. She could never figure out exactly what she was so insecure about, she was usually so confident.
Time passed, and they grew closer as they talked about the future, living on their own, marriage, children – gave Julie faith that they would last and she began to ignore her insecurities.
The time came when they decided they wanted to take the next step and live together in their own house. Living in London, it was difficult to find the right place for them, and house hunting took a while. They enjoyed looking for houses together, and Julie was excited about the future until one day, he left. With no explanation, Mark broke up with Julie, moved out of the share house, and was gone. Julie was left feeling confused, betrayed, and it took over a year until she began to move on.
Eventually the bad days became fewer, and the good days became brighter until one day, almost a year and a half after Mark’s heartbreaking decision, she met Paul.
Julie was happy with Paul, it took longer to open her heart to Paul, but she did, and they had a wonderful relationship, fun and loving. Julie was surprised at how she felt, she thought her insecurities would be even stronger now that she had been heartbroken, but she had none. She trusted Paul completely, but no matter how close she grew to him, she couldn’t get rid of the sinking feeling that Mark was her soul-mate,
d she had lost him.
Just as Julie and Paul’s relationship was beginning to blossom and grow serious, Mark found Julie and begged for her to forgive him. Truly believing they were destined to be together, Julie broke up with Paul, accepted Mark’s apologies and took him back.
Now, Julie is with Mark, and while their relationship is magical when they’re together, when they’re apart, Julie’s old insecurities instantly return and she’s left feeling just as confused as before.
