Albac broken but pushing forward

How long does it take a person to realize you fcked it up. How long does it take for a person to realize you had a good thing and you threw it away. How long does it take for an adolescent to realize that she's been thinking like a child. How long does it take for a woman to realize that infatuation and excitement always fades in a long term relationship, that you've got to keep feeding and caring for a loving bond. How long does it take for a person to realize that the partnership you had was a damn good one. How long does it take a person to realize that your kids would've done a lot better w/o going through the disorienting splitting of the family? How long does it take for a woman to realize happiness is to be made, not found.

9-12 months seem, if anything, too short.
