It's another dip in the roller coaster, Cadence.

Let me ask you, are you working out and taking care of your body? Without the gym, I think I'd be locked up in the looney bin by now.

I feel similiar to you in that my mind (logic) tells me that W is bad for me and will always be a runner until she can tackle her own demons.

My heart (emotion) tells me that W is a flawed person like the rest of us and deserves understanding and that love can fix everything.

In the past, I've always made decisions regarding W based on my emotion.

That ^^^ thinking is the reason I'm here again with yet another broken heart.

Bottom line is that we both deserve better, Cadence. We don't believe it right now because our self esteem is in the gutter.

My best advice when going through these trying times, is to do nothing. If you don't feel confident in your ability to make smart decisions for you, then don't make any decisions at all for right now. The right path will reveal itself in time.

I also feel like you do when I see other couples. What in the hell is wrong with me? Why can't I keep a relationship? Why does it seem so effortless to all these other couples?

Hang in there, Cadence. You are not alone.
