What do you do when you meet the love of your life too young?

  • Thread Starter

So I met him when I had just turned 16, and I met him on the other side of the world on holiday and we fell in love and it was perfect. Now I know you probably don't believe that I could've known what love even was at 16, but trust me I loved that boy to bits. We were literally obsessed with each other, and so in sync. We were best friends. I genuinely believe fate bought us together and he is the love of my life. But it was too intense for how young we were. We would spend all our time together and drifted from other parts of our lives. It was like we'd settled down and weren't free anymore. More so for him, as he was growing apart from friends he'd grown up with as he left school, however I still saw my friends every day at school so I didn't notice as much. He eventually broke it off because he wasn't happy and we were too attached. I couldn't bear it at the time but now I see that it was the right thing to do. I know you'll probably be thinking there's so many people out there that I have yet to meet, and that he most likely isn't the love of my life, but my gut is telling me otherwise and my gut is usually right. He made me so inhumanly happy and I regret letting it get so intense so young. I know as a teenage boy he's obviously going to want to act like one, and not be tied down to one person. So I have let him go. As much as it hurts I want him to enjoy being young & single. My question is does anyone have any advice on moving on? I genuinely believe that things will pick up where they left off once we're older and the timing's right and I have been to uni etc. The worst thing is (because I met him on holiday) he lives a few towns away and so we have totally different friends, no mutual friends, we'll never just 'bump into each other'. And I wanted so badly to get back with him and be more casual and see him less and let him have way more time with his friends and everything but he just won't listen and I don't know what to do . I love him so much and I do want him to be happy, I just wish that he would allow me to at least try & give him the best of both worlds in the relationship that he deserves. The last conversation we had was him saying he'd glad he met me and us both agreeing that it was just too intense. I told him that if he tries to move on and finds he can't, then he knows where to find me. He replied 'same with you'. How can I tell him in a non - needy way that if he would give me the chance to I would give him the more casual relationship that he wants? thanks.
