Well RAI - I feel compelled to point out you aren't helpless in this. Detachment is for your peace of mind. If your friends are telling you things that prevent you from detaching? Tell them they aren't helping you and that you want them to stop
I have to a degree. That is also a work in progress. I have told my friends and family to tone down the hostility as it does not help. In their defense,they are not (and have never been) that inflammatory, but you only need one small spark to ignite me these days.

I hope you're right. I am just looking forward to the day. I really want companionship. I miss it alot.
