25yearsmic, This is where I am at in my life. Yes, I love him and always will but I have to change my response even if its 1700 miles away. I want my moms guidance in this but she is no longer here. I have been praying for answers but the grief is to overbearing right now. I just know my worth and that God has great plans for me. I wish it could have been different because even today on the phone he said he loved me. He came up with a millon crazy reasons for leaving yet told me he was wearing his wedding ring( he never wore his ring before) He told me it just didnt work out we grew apart. All the I love you but not in love speech. I have been here before. Different time, different year. But as I said the stakes are so different now and i must make the decision for me despite how i feel. Yes, there clearly is a pattern. The only thing that I have left is NO CONTACT. Thank- you for your kind words and for your support. I am happy that you were able to get through the MLC and be sucessful! kee
