How to Cope When It’s the Right Person at the Wrong Time

Deciding to pursue the relationship despite obstacles can also affect your life, including missed opportunities. You might pass up on career advancements, experiences, relationships, and even personal goals if you make significant changes in your life for a relationship.

What It Feels Like

It’s normal to feel different emotions when you meet the right person at the wrong time. You might feel excited about meeting someone you really share a connection with, but also a sense of longing and frustration that you cannot be together.

Even after your window of opportunity has passed, you might find yourself holding on to hope that you’ll be able to one day work through the timing problems holding you back. You might think that eventually, you’ll meet again and be able to make it work.

Or you might find yourself questioning what might have happened if you’d done things differently.
