Yes, I know it hurts. We just need to understand that we can not control others. The only thing we have control of is US. Our thoughts, words and actions.

Changes in OUR BEHAVIOR is our best chance of drawing our wayward partners back to us (NOT WORDS). Setting them free. Finding our internal happiness. Project a changed person to them. I still have a hard time interacting with MsR2C. I fall back on old habits.
