After journaling and reading, I decided to send H a text. I told him that even though his feelings had changed I was still glad that I had met him and married him. I wished him well and hit, 'send'. Then I went into the kitchen. About 45 sec. later he was calling. I didn't answer though; I didn't know what to say after sending that. I'm trying to remain detached. I don't want to be pulled back in anymore. But I am also trying to show him that I do not hate him and I don't regret our years together. He did not leave a message.
I hope I did ok.
Most of us really marry only once. First love endures, even unto our dying day. And we never really divorce.
