Well, the legal issues are done. We both put our guns down.
I met with her today in a coffee shop. We sat and talked for 3 hours.
At first she was very angry about me abandoning her, later she stopped being defensive, and we had a very heart-wrenching talk. We both still really love each other, but we both know we can't be together.
It seemed like each one of us was waiting for the other to ask to get back together, but no one did.
We said our goodbyes, hugged and kissed and parted ways.
This is by far the hardest thing I ever had to do.
I always thought relationships end when the love is gone, but we still love each other very much. I know we can't be together because she will drink again, but it just feels so wrong to end things.
If the brains says one thing and the heart says another, which one do you follow?
