'He started calling me childish and said how it’s not even a big deal': Woman and boyfriend break up because they're going to different countries for college, they stay in touch until boyfriend reveals he's on a dating app and she ghosts him

They say that we shouldn't try to devote our time to loving other people when we haven't learned to love ourselves. If we don't know how to comfort ourselves and accept who we are, how are we going to be able to do that for other people? That's what society wants to tell you. There are times, however, when this isn't necessarily true. A person can come into your life and lift you up from your sunken place. They can teach you what true love feels like, and through their devotion and care, you can learn how to love and be loved. 

The unfortunate side of this is there's a chance that there will come a time when you and your partner experience some real growing pains. Maybe you've become more successful than them as you've healed. Maybe they're intimidated by you when your light starts to shine. Sometimes you just truly outgrow each other, and there's nothing wrong with that. It just may be time to reevaluate your relationship and decide what you want out of a partner. One woman's relationship came to this point when both she and her boyfriend decided to break up since they were both moving away, yet he kept staying in touch with her. Should she cut him off cold turkey? Read on to decide.
