Please don't let me words to DG haunt you. They are meant to inspire you. smile
They inspire me too, but they do haunt me.
I realize I do have a worth and I have a price more precious than pearls. That one person sees a pearl as a irritating grain of sand covered by nacre and not their beauty is not my problem anymore. Others can! Only my own restrictions imposed on myself stand between me and finding someone that DOES appreciate me for who I truly am.

Queen of Swords, like the new name, though I thought I understood the old one. New name for a new outlook
Yes, I am no longer caught between two bad positions, with no where to escape. For Jack although you may quibble - This is the Queen of Swords : A person of sharp insight, persuasive, powerful and thorough. If extroverted, an administrator, an organizer, a firebrand, splendid as a summer's day - and sometimes as overwhelming. If introverted, a person of deep sentiment, susceptible to flights of ecstasy, of the flames of inner torment.

Wait for a partner. Even the old one?
Yes, because they were a partner once.
I am waiting because I love my kids and believe they deserve a home with two loving parents. I wait because I really do love the guy, he has many sterling qualities and is a kind hearted, generous person in many ways. I wait because I made a promise not just to him but to myself. However, I realize that this is not solely dependent on me, and I can move forward, with or without him now.

Queen I am also starved for all those things. I did not know how painful this would be. But I will wait and fight for my M as long as I can. Something that I learned in my training is to challenge my negative thinking, that it is not the end of the world, that this will pass
Negative thinking is a challenge for me as well. To not get sucked into stinkin' thinkin' and the dark place where the sun barely shines. It is getting better. I am able to see opportunities where once before I saw barriers. I'm much more relaxed and unstressed about things. It's a huge relief!
Thank you all again for your response!
