Some really good advice here...noday - I love the idea of really examining the motivations in ourselves when we seek relationships, no matter what kind. Of course, hindsight is always much clearer but I wonder with my marriage if I was too quick to trust completely and too hasty with my judgement of who I thought he was. And why was that? I mean...what was I after?
I know that today, after finally making the decision and acting on it yesterday, feel free now to move forward...something I know I wanted initially when I moved out last January...but in trying to honor my commitment hung in there for another 9 months. It makes me wonder if I have been ignoring my intuition again...another bad habit needing work...and tried to make excuses again because I believed in him.
I always believe the best in people, even in the face of hard evidence. Gotta work on that!
P.S. TC you need to clean out your SR inbox...tried to PM you and it won't allow it! ; )
