It's really sad sometimes when two very good people can't make it work, but yes, liberating. You gave it your best, both of you. If it wasn't meant to happen, ending it is not "failure," because "success" as defined as long-term together was never on the table in the first place.
The question I have is, what are you meant to learn from this, both of you? Learning that will make this a success.
I'm still deciding what I may or may not have learned from this so far. I'm not putting anything in a 'fail' column here. This time, everyone was win. (A winrar was us! A weiner is you!)
As long as you've had good times together, learned something from each other and are still friends, I'd count it as a win overall, even if at this point it might not feel quite like it.
hopefully this works out for the best...that's a good way of looking at it, having whatever happens between you without having to deal with The Expectation Of Coupledom.

It wasn't?

Uh, I think just meeting each other and making a new friend makes this a success even if we don't learn anything else.
If you don't mind, I like to define for myself what makes a relationship a success or not.

You are absolutely allowed to decide your own terms, and I'm sorry that I seemed to be stepping on your toes there.
