But yes, I do have bigger fish to fry. I just CAN'T not feel anything for him , and yet i believe he either wants me to leave him alone or cant make up his mind or have respect to be honest and tell me he has a problem and alot of that ails in the toxicity of he and I. ?
Elt678-

I get myself into a lot of hot water when I start listing all I can't do. I make myself crazy, and start to feel stuck, am likely to isolate, and just keep going in circles.

I do better even when I am thinking about what I can't do, being aware of and even listing what I can.

So my question/challenge for you is what can you do right now to help yourself (hint posting here is already a can in my opinion).
