free, i'm so sorry you're in this situation. you clearly don't deserve it (none of us do), but you sound to me like you're so strong and you know what you need to do for you, as much as it hurts. i find you and others like you very admirable.

ah, i wonder the same thing. especially that last question. and honestly, i think he will realize that one day. it gives us purpose, makes us feel like we didn't go through all of this for nothing. he will realize what he's done to you, whether he eventually admits it or not, and he will see that you were the best thing to ever happen to him. i know he will.
