She's Gone - No Contact (Part 2)

[NikB]

OK one more quick post then I'll shush so you can catch up..

I would have just prolonged this grief, but if I hadn't driven by there I would still be happy and hopeful.

I think this is a key statement - you're tying "happy" with "hopeful about this R." Be happy, be hopeful about your future. That will come with healthy detachment.

I talked to about 6 different friends yesterday, all with varying advice.

I forgot to add - great job reaching out for support. I'm glad to see it as it's so important.
