^ Had a lovely weekend. I did not respond to stbx's Fri "living well text" ever and last night he texted me this:
I'm not happy and I never will be. I feel depressed and empty... And love was never the problem. I never lost the love for you.
Sounds familiar sol... my H says he's not happy about the D either and it's "not what he wants"... Love was never our problem either he says... Loves me SO MUCH!!
These words are empty sol... it's not what he says, it's what he does. He's telling you this stuff b/c he wants to feel better about himself. Be stronger than me! STOP TALKING/TEXTING/ETC HIM!! cut yourself loose! it gets harder as time goes on!!
You have to decide that you're worth it. I spent a lot of time trying to get someone to love me who treated me like crap. When I asked my H for a D... I'd finally made the decision that I would fight for me because I was worth it. I really wanted him to fight for me, but since he wouldn't DO IT (he SAID he would lots of times but never DID), I decided that I would.
You are worth it. Nursing school!?! Congratulations! That is wonderful! Flirt it up with the hottie lab partner!!
When you are happy as an individual, you are in a better position to determine whether a partner enhances your happy life or weighs it down.
