26 and trying to figure out the next steps to take in my life. I broke up with my GF of 6.5 years who I love but am not sure is the right one. We were doing long distance and life just seems to be taking us in different directions. It's hard because it was/is a great relationship but I'm not sure I can give her what she wants from life and I was unsure if she is the one I want to spend the rest of my life with her. I'll always love her but I think life and our decisions are taking us in different directions. It's the hardest decision I've ever made but I feel like it was the right one and done for the right reasons. But it's still stressful and I am worried we might have made a terrible mistake.
At the same time since we've broken up I've met someone who's great. She is fun and when I'm with her I'm really happy. It's going really well and I have nothing to complain about. We're not moving too fast and she isn't putting any pressure on me, she's understanding and we can talk about anything, even my ex (to an extent). I'm just worried that it's too soon and that I might be projecting or something... But it's so natural and fun.
So yeah trying to figure things out. It's stressful but also exciting. I just wish I had someone I could speak to in person. I'm so far away from close friends and family and I really wish I had someone to talk to that could give me feedback and advice.
TL;DR: 26 figuring out next step in my career, ended 6.5 year great relationship because while it was "right", it doesn't mean it's "right". Worried about new relationship whether the feelings are genuine and not hurting the girl. Wish I had a mentor or someone local I could talk to.
