How do they walk away?

You had so much more than many people will ever have. One day you will be grateful for that but it takes time.

I'm hijacking a little here, but is this true, naej? I like to think I (and Treese and all of us in these situations) could eventually look back on our M's and be happy for the love and good times. When it ends so badly, with so much hurt and pain and betrayal, can we ever forget that, or forgive our Hs? I'm not saying we shouldn't hope for that, but right now I am so devastated that every time I look at a photo of me & H in happier times it's just excruciating. I have the urge to throw out all the love letters H wrote me because all they do now is torture me.
