When's it my turn?

Thanks to those of you who responded...I'll comment back when I have more than a few seconds.

Just wanted to record this while it's fresh. I was doing some journaling work today, working on exorcizing LW, when I realized that the real pitfall of piecing is we begin to rely on the other person to make us happy again. I couldn't figure out what the problem was, why I think I was actually happier last summer when H was estranged.

Well, I've figured out I've been treating H like I need him, not like he's a fabulous person to share my time with in my already happy, awesome life. That's it. Simple. What H does has to relevance to my happiness. I am strong enough to deal with whatever, and the only thing that matters is that I love myself and know I'm okay no matter what.
