It’s So Hard To Say Goodbye But He’s Got To Go! Signs You’re Wasting Your Time

5. He’s Safe

This guy doesn’t light your fire, but he looks good on paper and everyone thinks he’s a great catch – except you. Yet you stay with him because he’s never been married, has no children, has a degree and a great job, a car, owns a home, loves his mother and has all of his teeth. Sounds like a winner right? Sure he does…yet there is no passion, no chemistry. You are rarely, if ever, excited to see him. There are no butterflies. He laughs at ALL of your jokes (even the ones that aren’t funny) and he agrees with everything you say. You can’t get a rise out of him. He’s just….there. He bores you.

You can choose to live a boring life with boring kids and be miserable – or you can let him go so that the man who makes your heart race and your soul smile can find you. I know it’s hard to leave a “good” guy when there is a shortage of men out there who are genuinely good dudes who don’t have bad credit, baby mamas and a record. But it’s not fair to him or to yourself to stay with a guy simply because he’s safe, even if you don’t love him. Take a chance. Don’t stick with the wrong guy for a really long time simply because you’re afraid the love you want isn’t out there. Life is too short.
