I think there are two kinds of breakups, amicable and conventional.
In an amicable breakup, both parties feel relieved, forgive each other, and stay friends. I think.
And it feels right for them both.
No losers, only winners.
No tears for wonderful times lost, forever, and for regrets of the past.
I expected relief. I expected a desire to move on and look to the future. I expected a lightness of being, after being relieved of the burden of this consuming sadness that I have been enduring for months now.
Instead I fought, reasoned, resisted and lost. To an argument that felt more like a rehearsed excuse than a sincere thought. And then we cried.
So tell me again what I'm not doing right.
And is it just me or does this feel... wrong?

Love is a thought, a feeling, and a wish.

I don't think any breakups, right thing to do or not, ever feels 'right'. You cannot help but feel hurt to permanently part from a constant companion and someone you loved, regardless of whether things were going sour or not. There are going to be tears, you can't avoid that. And your heart is still gonna be broken. The only difference, to me between an amicable and a non-amicable break up, is whether you both choose to remain amicable.
