Thanks for the advice here. I've sent it. I haven't told her I've sent it.

My broker has said that I am not able to afford the house by myself - my salary would have to almost double! Might happen when I'm 50 but not at 36, so selling is the only option.

There is another £500 charge that I need ot inform W about. I'll just do that when I see her. I thought I took the lead in saying "let's meet Sunday", not options, just that day and that's it. I've said I'm busy. I won't give her any further info.

I am feeling a little better today. I'm now just saying to myself 'her loss' if I feel sad. I was perfect for her frankly. I won't tell her that; just hoping that she will realise that herself in time. When I see her on Sunday I'm going to look as attractive as possible and give off a lot of positivity.

Good things:
Passed exams, therefore pay rise on the cards soon
Therapist says I've made such good progress I don't have to see them weekly
Saving money when possible
Exercising and eating well
Walking regularly
Speaking to family and friends more frequently
Enjoying hobbies and going out alone to events
Don't feel shameful anymore about what I did - just remorse but am channelling that into really addressing my issues and sorting things out
Not feeling like I'm a failure
I am feeling happier when I look in the mirror
