My parents disowned me and it took me 10 years to let them go. It didn't help that they stalked and harassed me. I worry that I won't get past this for 10 years either but I'm NC and I am working hard to GAL, detach and move on. This is harder than losing my parents because at least when that happened I had WAH. Now it's all me.
S19 bought a car yesterday. It's this classic manual transmission car from Britain. No power anything, steering wheel on the wrong side of the car and despite being barely able to drive it he drove it 2 miles to my house so I could see it. He giggled and is so excited. He wanted me to see it. Me.
