moving forward separately

First, who is B? He is the man that I can’t call my boyfriend (’cause he didn’t court/pursue me) but the man I talked to for a year and a half. He is from another country, yeah, a long distance relationship kinda thing. We never met in person, we met online which is very common nowadays. I can’t consider him as my boyfriend because he never really asks me to be one, and as someone who’s unready for commitment it is a blessing in disguise however we acted like we are together. We’re together but not official. Yep, a situationship. The relationship was good but as the time went the honeymoon phase ended. It’s not how it used to be & I knew it from the very beginning because of course long distance relationships won’t really be successful for everyone. I admit we were physically attracted to each other. I can finally say that it won’t really work not only because of the distance but also of our character. We are both so independent that we don’t talk for hours, days, and even months. Our schedule doesn’t mean that our days are not the same. He works in the morning while I sleep at night. I woke up for college and he slept. We tried and now we decided to separate ways. Live like we never met. I guess it was a blessing in disguise that we didn’t meet in person because if we did I think it would be hard especially for me to let go. I liked him until now however I don’t want to settle yet. My priorities and his doesn’t meet, and that is totally okay. We’re old enough to know when to stop. I am grateful for the memories we shared even through online. I don’t have any hard feelings for him. I am happy for him and I am happy for myself for choosing myself like I always do. There are relapses and it is part of the process. We just have to embrace what we feel and move forward separately.
