Hi Staytog. I also have some days better than others and I'm so glad valentine's is over with. I agree about not pursuing and i haven't been for close to 3 weeks now and it's taken all the strength I can manage to not contact her.

You mentioned how your friends all believe you will get back together. I feel the same way as far as all the friends we had together. They always said we were so good together and honestly I think a bunch of people still don't know. Her family still loves me too. The problem I have is that she gave everybody up and found a whole new set of friends and what she considers now her family at a local dive bar. She's so deep in her new life now that I really don't know how she could get out. But I do believe if she did she would realize what she's done and what I mean to her. Unfortunately for me I don't see that ever happening as her new friends and support group don't know me and support her in her new life. I understand it's easy to find acceptance and belonging with the bar regulars. She apparently feels comfortable with the way her life is now and it's so very hard for me to walk away.
