When I was visiting my exabf in jail, I had to get a cab back one time and I started telling the cabbie my story with the ex...the cabbie was a recovering alcoholic and he said, "who is more addicted? him to drugs, or YOU to him?"
It was like a slap inside my head...I knew it was true!
I went through withdrawls for a while when we parted, but the longer I am away...the better it gets....
