Yes, me too.
Funny, but today I was able to help my STBXAH with something by taking him to get his car at the shop. I offered, he didn't ask. I was happy to help and we actually had a nice conversation despite the animosity that has been between us for the past few months since I left. I felt no resentments, no anger, not even uncomfortable. My recovery has given me the strength to be me and I don't have to walk around on eggshells anymore and I can be free from the past. It actually was a good day and I was glad to be of service.
