Yes, I agree with you. This is what I am struggling to accept. This is why I am writing you today. To have the grace to just let go. It is not always easy, though, is it?
And funny, too. I really didn't think I'd be affected by today. I thought: "Oh, it's just another day."
I feel more lost than I did 2mo. after leaving him.
Like I said, I'd love to be able to blame all my bad planning on him, I can't, though. More reason for me to talk about it as much as I can.
