did i do the right thing?

Question

I left my girlfriend that i had been dating for 6 months for someone that was from my past, the reason why it didnt work in the past was because were were to young to drive and she moved out of town so we never saw eachother, but we can drive now

Answer 1

When you are young you make all kinds of decisions. Relationship come and go and the reason that we have them is to test the ground and see what will be best for us when we finally decide to make it permanent. Although you seem to feel guilty you really shouldn't enjoy life and just make sure that you apologize to the girl for breaking up.

Answer 2

Well there is really no right or wrong here. Except you do owe the girlfriend you just broke up a huge apology because from what you said it makes it seem like the current girlfriend was just someone to keep you busy until the girl from your past could get back into the picture. I know I would not like to be treated that way and I doubt she found it very nice either.

Answer 3

YEs you did the right thing.
sorry the girl you were dating for 6 months got hurt but that is life.
Glad you did it as if you did not you would always be wondering WHAT IF
see how this new relationship goes
best of luck!
Give yourself a break, your ex girlfriend deserves to be with someone that had her full attention, it was not like the two of you were married, since your mind was else where, you did a noble thing by telling her

Answer 4

I dont know, is it? Do you feel guilty for leaving her? If yes, you did not do the right thing. But if you dont, then you probably did. People are in past for a reason. I just hope that this time around with the old gf, that the driving was the only problem....if not, you probably made a mistake......Good Luck!

Answer 5

Only u know the answer to that.Maybe your asking cuz your having second thoughts.If it doesn't work then it doesn't work.U can't stop your feelings n u obviously had more for the old flame then 4 the new.I think u made a better choice cuz it's much better then the road other men would take which is to cheat n lose both.

Answer 6

maybe you did maybe not. How would you know if things will work out with someone from the past and was it smart to dump someone who loves you to find out. Sounds like an immature decision and from your question (vague) you have little to base your decision on.
Hope you find the answer your looking for but keep in mind what it may do to the one that does love you.

Answer 7

We date to find the type of person we want to be with. In that process we will break up with several people until the right one comes along. Each breakup hurts someone, but both learn from the experience. You did the right thing.

Answer 8

any kind of long distance relationship is hard. you guys both have to be committed to making it work if you are willing to try it again. maybe examine why you left her for your ex in the first place. it's possible that there were some underlying reasons you didn't want to address, so you blamed why it wasn't working out on the long distance thing. if you really like the girl who lives elsewhere and you wanna go out again, go for it!

Answer 9

there is no right or wrong when it comes to young non comitted puppy love relatioships. This is the time when you live and learn to answer some of the right or wrong questions you'll have in the future by your experiences now. Good luck , but most of all , Learn.

Answer 10

Only you know who is truly the one for you. If you are just 16 now, you still are pretty young. If it was that easy for you to dump the girl you'd been seeing for 6 months then she probably wasn't the one for you. And if you went back to your ex, you weren't the one for her. It doesn't mean that you are right or wrong.
