Question: Why do I feel that I’ve stayed too long in my current relationship?

Dear Betty,

Why do I feel that I’ve stayed too long in my current relationship?

We’ve all been there, haven’t we? That deep sense of attachment that keeps us holding on, even when we know deep down that it’s time to say goodbye. But when is the right time to let go? It can be such a tough decision to make, especially when you’ve invested so much time and effort into a relationship. Recognizing when you’re staying in a relationship for too long is crucial for your own happiness and well-being.

It’s easy to get comfortable and fall into the routine of a long-term relationship. But if that comfort starts to feel more like complacency, it’s time to reevaluate. Saying goodbye can be dauting, but don’t let fear hold you back from seeking the love and fulfillment you deserve.

So, if you find yourself pondering whether you’ve overstayed your welcome in a relationship, take a step back and assess your happiness. Embrace the journey of self-discovery, and don’t be afraid to pursue new beginnings. Remember, life is too short to settle for anything less than heart-racing, soul-stirring love!

I’m always here to help.  Let’s talk.  Schedule your Free Coaching Call today!

What Clients Are Saying

Betty walked the path with me in such a way that I found someone amazing!

In a world saturated with online dating and connections that just seem ingenious, I had given up hope. I craved human connection that didn’t involve a screen and knew that I had a lot of love to give.

Finding that person was an uphill battle, but Betty made me feel as though I was not alone. She helped me believe in myself and walked the path with me in such a way that I found someone amazing… and learned more about myself in the process. In my eyes, that’s a double win! – Bruce W, Nashville TN

Betty helped me to regain my authenticity and confidence

I was down-right desperate to find love. I was looking in all the wrong places and found my emotions to be all over the place every time I went on a date. I felt disappointed and hopeless.

Betty helped me to regain my authenticity and confidence. She didn’t just help me to find a partner, but also helped me to navigate my emotions, and realize that it takes two to tango. I had to be the best version of myself to meet someone, and Betty did that for me. – Amanda S, New Orleans LA
