How do I get over a relationship I never wanted to end. My partner of three years has just ended our relationship. I totally understand his reasons (we have a great relationship but he has kids from previous relationship and wants to focus on them) but i never wanted to lose him, and now I don't know what to do or how to feel???

It wasn’t great because if it was he wouldn’t have ended it. Believing that is was is just going to make it that much harder to walk away. A man would never leave a great relationship for his kids because in a great relationship it all become integrated. I’m not saying it’s your fault. Maybe the kids didn’t accept you, maybe he wasn’t ready to share that part of his life with you, maybe it was too hard to blend a family.
Just don’t kid yourself. Be sad that it’s ended, then one day when you are ready get up, shake it off and go find a real man whose committed to making a life with you.
I agree, great for you, but not for him.
People repartner every day with kids, even problem kids, but they navigate it together.
He chose not to, so it wasn’t great for him.
He obviously didn’t want to be with you or he’d have made it work . You’ll get thru it but of course your hurt and upset . Take some time for yourself and make your life so good you’ll never look back. There’s someone else out there better ..
Hmmmm. That reason is an excuse. Find a man that loves you back :-) he's done you a favor by not continuing to string you along.
