what was the last straw in your last relationship? what made the love die?
for me it was an age difference--20 yrs. i kept continually worrying about my SO missing out, especially since i am NOT looking for just another bf. i'm getting toward the end of my ability to have children etc... so the guilt about him missing out on certain things i'm sure he would be good at and would fulfill him as a person was just too much. the person i'm interested in now is much closer to my age. i'm only 5 years older. i feel much more comfortable that we have the same goals and that he fully understands all of the issues that could be on the table. sometimes i wasn't sure my last SO really quite understood what he would be stepping away from. the last straw for me wasn't any incident in particular just an overall feeling that something was not right.
