GOOD. So you're not giving up or giving in to your own self destruction. That's all I wanted from you. Now I can sleep easy.
Baggy: You made a beautiful wave today. Your initial post made me realize in horror, not only did I stop kissing H for many years, but I also stopped sending out my love and admiration in notes/emails and in our phone conversations. All business, self protection, fear of rejection, uncomfortable being the initiator. As soon as I realized this, I took a break from reading your post to send a saucy text to H who is away on biz. Not only did he send saucy stuff back (and forth a couple of times), but I imagine it gave him a nice boost that helped him navigate his high-pressure meeting. I bet he was able to make better eye contact and smile more, which probably influenced others as well.
Never underestimate your power to make great things happen.
