“If they loved me they would XXXXX as a function and degree of their love for me.” “Since they haven’t they must not love me” So begins a rollercoaster and IMO was a source for cognitive dissonance exhibited by my X. I admit to some of this stinking thinking.

Let me give up the need to know why things happen as they do. I will never know and constant wondering is constant suffering. Caroline Myss
