Here is the break up letter.

We've been together 2 years, he wants me to give him a baby, and yet he won't even propose because he isn't over his ex of 4 years ago.

Give me strength ladies.

*I'm sorry. I really am. I can't see much of a future between us.

That's not your fault. You are not over what could have been. And that's ok. You don't have to be, but it's not fair for me to wait for something I know won't happen. And deep down, I think you know it too. I shouldn't have to live in the shadows of, "what could have been." And quite frankly I won't do it.

Why would you ever think of marriage with me? I mean that old saying is as true as the day is long, "why buy the cow when you are getting the milk for free?"

You said that you are ready for a child yet not ready to make an actual commitment to its mother. Already that baby would be in a broken home and it's not even conceived.

I know you love me, but I don't think you are in love with me. I am just a space filler so you won't feel lonely. I know that.

And despite everything, I still do love you. More than anyone. This isn't something you can change, this isn't something you need to apologize for. This is who you are. I have accepted that. It's time you do as well.

Despite how long we've been together, a more serious commitment only came up when you were joking about it, or someone else brought it up. I can't make myself give you an ultimatum, "propose to me in this amount of time or I'm leaving." No. That's not how things are done.

I'd want you to chose to spend the rest of your life with me because you want to. Because you love me more than you can bare. Because you want to take pride in me being your wife. Because you see us being happy together. Because you see a future together. Not because I made you.

So, I think it's time I do what's best for both of us and say goodbye. We are not at the same points in life, we are traveling separate paths, and maybe they will intertwine again someday. You are one of the best people I could have met, but I don't think we are best for each other.*

I'm going to read it at our couples therapy appointment.
