Puppy,

I do agree with you. I should have struck while the iron was hot, but I let him manipulate me by saying he thought it would be best if she quit on her own, so that he could avoid any kind of lawsuits. Yes, I know, I was extremely stupid.

I very much appreciate everyone's advice. I do like the letter of boundaries, but I do know him well enough that it would not matter much either way to him right now.

I was afraid of pushing him away again, but I guess I never fully had him. So I've got to learn not to be afraid to push him away, because he is already gone.

My head is telling me to let him go, that he will never change. My heart is telling me to hold on. I've got to get both of those in the same place. I know my head is much smarter.

You are correct about enforcing my personal boundaries, that's what I plan on doing.
