That “you” from years ago who thought “he was the one” has evolved into a much more multi-faceted and complex person. You were never cut out to be someone who was going to settle down early and get married and have a family, as others expected of you. You had too much to explore about your own talents and self, and too much to gain by being free and out in the world. You were meant for a more creative social set than whom you would have attracted with your ex.

You will settle into a circle of artistic, worldly people. You did not harm your future prospects —all you did was clarify your own values and take the simplest route to a more fulfilling partnership.

Note from Cupid’s Confidante: If people could "do something bad to their future prospects" simply by having attracted a person who hurt their feelings, most of us would have ruined our future already. I actually notice an encouraging sequence that’s fairly common, judging from the love stories of my clients: They tell me how their nightmare of a relationship was followed by finding the love of their life, or that now, with their fourth spouse, they're finally happy. Many times I've noticed how people can go from a very bad relationship to a good one in what appears to be a quantum leap.
