He believes we aren’t meant to have life-long relationships because he believes love is just a feeling, not a choice or an action. So he doesn’t make the choice and do the work to love someone. He passively lets it come to him (and flow away from him).
And he is always looking for happiness elsewhere, always looking for the next best thing such that he has never learned to appreciate what is in front of him.
There is plenty for me to learn and grow from this relationship which I will do but one piece of that is learning to accept that a long term relationship with someone with those two mindsets can never last. Maybe I should recognize the beauty in the fact that he stuck around for as long as he did.
