I do believe that great things are in store for us. That has been my constant this whole past year. Blind faith that no matter what I would be fine. OK I confess I hadn't realistically estimated the time line but no storm can last forever.
Detaching is a process and one that I think happens naturally rather than forcefully. Linda you mentioned on your thread that you were trying to detach. Be gentle with yourself, this isn't something you can force. From my earliest days on this Board the advice was to detach. This is great advice but my brain received that message like there was a switch somewhere I needed to flip, that there was something I could DO about becoming detached.
There isn't. And I am still not quite there yet or I wouldn't be so peeved and resentful that xSO felt the need to tell me all his changes were for the good after four months of radio silence. Detach. I'd like to detach his head, or like Linda said, someplace lower. Honestly I am not as violent as I seem
Life is busy, if a little mundane. I am usually off travelling this time of year but not this year and I guess I am a little restless. I take that as a good sign. Better restless than the listlessness of last year!
Nothing from the Great Beyond. I do wonder if I have heard the last of him but then I think of Bea's experience and think maybe not. I mentioned on Linda's thread that my LL was QT. Kinda ironic, I think. I recognize that I have always had abandonment issues of my own which makes it even harder for me not to hate him or be angry with him. His actions - and now I actions - pushed all my buttons at once. And all the wrong buttons!
So here is to a bright future for all of us. And may our next partners push all the right buttons
