Just sent a text to W Wishing her a Merry Xmas hoping that she is enjoying her presents.
Not too sure whether this is dB or not but I do know that Xmas is her favorite festival of the year.
What's more strange was that after sending it. I felt that my stomach was turned inside out. Not sure why this is happening. I do know she is not going to reply. But that feeling of upset stomach feels so weird.
Gifts are all right but must be given without any expectations.
As for those feelings, well, I can only say from experience that those feelings slowly fades. I guess it has a lot to do with 'acceptance' of my own situation. With that comes detachment. Slowly but surely.
