I was wary about finding a MC who would support working on the R instead of telling us it's better to split so I asked them about their views before picking one. Didn't do any good in the end since xBF never really wanted to work on the R, just went because I said I wanted to try MC. Whatever.
Going dark has been good for me too. Different sitch in that I no longer want to salvage the R, but ignoring his requests to see me feels pretty good. Not doing it to be petty or spite him, I just don't think I would get anything out of it. I only do things now that benefit me and he's no longer a priority in my life.
