Quick update:

I took a machete to my draft email and sent one that was mostly validating and, like 25 suggested, a thank you. I remembered that I actually did thank him for the opportunity he gave me to work on myself, shortly after BD. I remember telling him that if the best thing to come out of this was that I had the 2nd half of my life to live happily, I would always be grateful to him for that.

But I haven't said that in a while.

So, I opened up and sent a heartfelt note at around 1 am last night.

This morning I get a text: "Good morning. Do you know where we go to vote?"

Me: "no I'm sorry but you can probably look it up online"
H:"google actually has a great feature for that today. Here's our location, by the way..."

A crack in the ice? Who knows. But I'm glad I sent that email and not the one i had originally planned, which was much more self-righteous and accusatory.

Thank you all.
