I got a text today...my SO wants to "talk". I said sure. I am being there for him, but still on a friend level. I talked to his mom...she said he's not used to an independant woman who's not an enabler. He told me a few weeks ago that it was a "shock" dating someone who "has it together".

I try to look at everything as a learning experience, and boy have I learned through this. I made a decision today, to not abandon him totally, because that's just not me. However, I'm not playing "the game" anymore, no longer walking on eggshells, nor scheduling my plans around him, and that includes major life decisions and romance.

Thanks to all for embracing me into this fellowship.
