Wanting to move on from a long term relationship but unable to

[Pyromancer]

I'm sorry but not surprised that the other guy reacted that way. I would have, too.

I'm really glad that you were honest with your partner. As time goes on and you meet other guys, you need to be honest and upfront with them from the start. Lies have a way of surfacing at the most inopportune times.

Good luck, and I wish you happiness in the future.
