It's totally fine to feel the anger and let it out. But, do not let it make you do something you will regret. Because I can almost guarantee you, you probably won't feel angry tomorrow.



I love angry music...its so empowering and I think thats the place where I get to curse H out in my head. For some reason I can only do that when my body is in motion, working up a sweat or in the shower. Otherwise, I try my hardest not to allow bitterness to take root in my heart. But I'm human. Also, the gym seems to be my happy place these days and H seems to be floored by that since he's the runner/gym rat of our R and would train me.

Also, is it wierd that I think H actually made me "better" overall? Even through this? Like, I'm doing so much self-introspection and realizing patterns in my character that have pushed people away and I wouldn't have come to that place so openly and quickly if it hadn't been for H who pushed me to be better, do more in my career and to move confidently in the direction of my dreams. Totally not putting him on a pedestal but, H seemed to be on the right track before he met me. And he was always the one with the positive attitude and who lifted me up even though I was negative, defensive and contentious. I put on a front when I met him...made him think I was a ray of light when actually I wasn't happy in my life at all. He kinda came along and "rescued" me. Don't get me wrong, I was moving in the direction of what I wanted and living my life, its just that when he came along, it all kind of just came together. I wonder if he things I brought any value to his life or made him better in any way...But I do agree with all of you that they change and I'm not really feeling this version of H right now.
