Dear,
Lately I feel that there has been the need to make some changes in our relationship. I feel that you are way to dependent upon me for things and that you do not give the significant others in your life a chance to step up and to prove themselves. I know that this may sound kind of harsh but I feel that it is time for me to break away and to step out on to my own. I know that you knew that this day would come eventually, and I know that it tears you to pieces on the inside, but I think that it is time.
As I step out onto my own I want you to know that I will always be there for you no matter what, but there will be times when I need to go out and find things for myself. I need to know what it is like to fail, and I need to know what it is like to pick myself up. I know that it will break your heart to see me fall but it is all part of growwing up. I want you to know that I love you, and that my success is your success. Until I write to you again.
Love,
