Colleen explained that she felt she and Matt had different value of what they wanted out of life, explaining that she\u00a0valued \u201cquality time\u201d above all others and she wanted Matt to spend time with her and they never would.<\/p>\n

She elaborated: “I would always initiate date night, and would have loved if he initiated. I want to be courted, and that was definitely lacking, especially towards the end of our relationship. We weren\u2019t growing together, we weren\u2019t working on it.\u201d<\/p>\n

As for what the ultimate “breaking point” was for the pair, Colleen emotionally explained: “I would say we stayed at the lows for a long time, we tried everything, we did everything and when we felt we were at that moment of breaking we\u2019d say, \u2018no I still love you.\u2019 We finally hit that point where we both knew that we just can\u2019t do this anymore.\u201d<\/p>\n

When asked what the \u201csaddest\u201d moment of it all was, Colleen described that the moment they realised they were done and hugged each other that once they let go of that huge they\u2019d also be letting go of the relationship.<\/p>\n

Colleen explained that it wasn\u2019t a relief in that moment that they\u2019d split for her, saying all she felt was the extreme \u201cweight of sadness.\u201d<\/p>\n
