So we broke up a few months ago after 4.5 year relationship. We were both in this hiking club for years before we started going out so have known each other a long time. At first I was undecided about whether I wanted to return or not, and haven't, as I wanted to take my time and see how I've felt. I've now decided to make a clean break and not return, even though I was upset about the whole thing initially, but I'm now happy with my decision and feel a sense of relief. He has returned. It was him that ended the relationship in an awful way. Friends say I'm letting him win but I don't see it like that as I don't want anything to do with him. I'm getting out hiking either alone or with a friend now. I'm also into running and cycling so keeping busy. I don't feel I need to return just to prove something, but I'm wondering if I'm making the right decision. There's a lot of happy memories there, but it's kind of lost its appeal to me now. I'd be grateful for a few opinions. Thanks.
