You do not think you would be in a better place if you had taken a harder stance earlier?
I'm gonna respond to this again as I've had some time for reflection. I was very upset/sad a couple of weeks ago and doubting the path I had chosen.
I'm glad you're feeling better about this.
Sleeper, your stance is for no one but you. A stance should never be taken or a boundary should never be laid simply to cause some sort of reaction or affect on another person.
Not to sound like a walk away or anything, IMO this really is all about you.
