Hon, I know where all of this low self-esteem comes from. I don't know if you want to counseling after or not, but it wasn't enough to get to the deep heart of the matter.

You can do fine without him there. You already have. Don't let anyone have that power over you. He is darn lucky to have you and you need to let him see that every day. He needs you, not the other way around. Don't fool yourself in thinking otherwise.

Take yourself back. If Gabe comes along fine, but if not, so be it. You don't need to keep carrying around the eggshells to walk on. Throw them away.

Hugs, kat
