Hi Gmum. I understand about the happy ending post, and how what might be working for someone else might not work for us. I just try to believe all this DBing stuff. That if we can be the person anyone would be a fool to leave, they might come back when the shine wears off that bright new penny in their lives and they realize what they've lost. Whatever brought us together with our partners was real and can't be denied. Even though now they are denying it all. It's still there. Yes, it may fade and be gone forever. But not yet.
I don't know, maybe hope is like a drug and we should let it go. But maybe it helps us through to the next baby step in our lives, and then the next one, until eventually we're running on our own and it's truly for us, not because of hope.
The man you fell in love with might be there still, but I know it's hard to see that. I feel like my partner is a completely different person and I don't know where she's gone. I'm crying as I write this, and I try not to remember the good times and the wonderful person she used to be. Where is the woman I fell in love with?
Very sad day. I'm thinking of you. Hugs.
