Hi Portia, I'm so glad to read your recent posts. You really are doing quite well, I'd say.
I'm taken by the differences in the many sitches on this board. Your SO bailed overnight, while others are living in a loveless relationship with their partner... some for years!

Remember, if SO is truly in MLC, this has nothing to do with you or the R. It's all about issues he's dealing with. Please try to not take it personally.

I find it so strange that I miss him but do not know if I would take him back at this point. Maybe I miss the memories and the "could have beens" more. We were a good couple. But the person he is NOW is someone who would have to do a lot of work for me to accept him back in my life.
Sounds healthy to me. If/when he decides he wants back in he'll have to earn your trust and respect. If it's real that will take time.
Do something nice for yourself this weekend!
