She is on her own journey - let her go - I know how hard it is, been there and done that.
I'm actually getting better at letting her go. I've resided myself to the fact that she may be gone forever, I can't stop her from leaving, and I'll be ok if she does. I don't want that, and thinking about it hurts worse than anything, but not as much as it did the first month or two.

Take whatever love you have for her and put it away in a safe place. A box maybe and put it up on a shelf. You can always get it down later if you need it.
I'm going to do this. But how do I live without this love, or any intimate love for years? Anyone have any tips? Like I explained earlier, loving her and having her committed to loving me is almost all I know, it was my entire adult life, over 3 decades! Being alone seems unimaginable.
M: A really long time. Crisis: 5 years. She's still worth it.
