I was surprised and speechless when I open my mailbox just now. I received an email from my girlfriend that I had been together for more than 11 years since I was 15 years old. She wanted to break up with me due to different path of life that we are heading. She felt that she needed a break and ease away from the pressure from her family on our relationship. I had replied to her and openly accepted her suggestion. No matter what, I will still be her close friend and share with her whatever that I think I should. I just wished her good luck as well. Positively, I never break down with tears but rather feel like expected to be happened. I see things positively and started to accept things openly and naturally nowadays as long as I know what I am doing.
