Most things you wrote could not have been closer to the things I have been thinking, if I were to have written it myself.
I am sure too that we would agree that it is easier to fix someone elses problems than our own.
I agree with your view on dbing too. And you are very accurate with your opinion on the divorce culture.
I think one of the things that can baffle all of us here, are the things that happen during the break-up. You send a letter to the dumper and they only read what they want to. They only hear what they want to. Its like watching an Oreo Cookie split in half and the part your left with the side without the cream. The person you knew is no longer the part with the cream.
