i did not respond, just carried up all my luggage and things by myself to find some notes about house things he had left for me. if i had not called him, i would have just come home to an empty house with notes! seems cowardly to me.
this broke my heart. it's weird because it broke my heart but in the same sentence I was really proud of you that you said "seems cowardly" so happy that you didn't dwell on what others would have done in that sitch.
Honestly SS I feel like I've gotten to know you over the past few months. We're from the same part of the country and seriously, I don't care if you're 22 or 82 I still think any man would be lucky to spend time in your company. As soon as I read the title of your thread I thought yep you are doing the right thing...dropping the rope. Who knows what will happen in the future but it's going to start happening on your terms and that will make all the difference!
Everything Accuray said is spot on. My H did that still does that and it would suck me and all the while it never meant anything. I don't think ever in his life would he consider working on our M, but he likes to feel that I'm still close to him, that he can say he's a good person etc.
Just continue doing what you're doing. I'm glad you had a great time back home it certainly helps recharge your batteries being in a familiar setting.
