Just as our ex's didn't deserve to be abused, we didn't deserved to be married to them and suffer the ramifications of their emotional problems. They were damaged by their abuse, and we were, by entangling ourselves with them for many years, by giving ourselves to them, affected by the reverberations of their problems.
Very well said, my friend. The reverberations of their problems shake our own web down to its core. They are all tied together... Sigh.

You are right, sir. I know this. I just can't pull that trigger.

The point I'm making is, the questions you want to throw at your ex, throw it at yourself, because you can't save her; you can only save yourself.
Probably the best words I've ever read on this forum. Thank you!
There are moments in this life when you are so confident in the rightness of your actions, that not even for a second do you consider the option that you might be wrong.
