I think that there's some detaching, in that I just don't have the same concern of what she does and where she goes as I used to and that I am developing a lot more of a life that doesn't involve her.

There is definitely some withdrawing as well. I don't really want to talk to her when she wants to talk to me. Just like you guys said, it's a protection thing. You're dead on there.

Some of it is just that I don't like the person that she is right now too.
