How can you tell if the other relationship is truly severed? Yeah, they've told you. You even stood there when they called them and told them it was over. But the trust is lost and tough to rebuild.
Trust. That's what it's about, right? Without it you really can't feel comfortable in your relationship. I feel like a domineering fool wanting to look at her cell phone, computer stuff, etc. I don't want her to stay up past me or anything. But there she is, at home alone and able to do whatever.
I almost feel like a fool. She can do what she wants and when and I'm too stupid to know. I mean, she did it before. What makes the big difference now?
I need this. This tangible thing to know we're moving forward. The feeling that I'm trying to move forward alone is disheartening.
To love someone like this. To forgive. To even feel at fault for it. I want to hold her up and make it better - make her better.
