I am no where near KD's level, I just really wanted to respond to you <3
maybe this week i am feeling lost because i don't know how to stand in the face of a D. do i go dark, do i continue being friendly and open and supportive and a safe place. how do i do those things?
Zig how would you feel/act if that conversation had never taken place? Because, honestly, that conversation didn't really change anything. The potential completion of the D, which hasnt even been filled yet, is far off in the future.
I know the conversation brings to life fears and sadness in the "endness" of something you have stood for for so long, but don't inflate the conversation into something so big and scary that it knocks you off balance.
This has been going on for some time, but it isn't over. Yes, the two of you had "real" moments during that conversation, but you don't even know what place he was in when he voiced his decision to D.
(((zig))) your reaction is totaly normal, expected even. The fact that it took you out of your place of serenity really makes me want to remind you of not jumping on the rollar coaster with H.
