Hi Cardinal, Thank you for your hugs and comments on my page. It stinks to know that other people are suffering but it is definitely a comfort to know we have virtual friends and a place to come that promotes kindness and most of all understanding...both when we are feeling weak or strong.
Even though I (we) don’t feel at times we are strong, we are! To have already come this far and taken the time to realize that something wasn’t right instead of just throwing our hands up and making a bad situation worse. Even if it continues to go down the path we don’t want at least we’ll know we tried our best.
I truly emphasize with your above statement. That is EXACLY how I too feel. And how were we to read minds to know there was a ticking time bomb waiting to go off? For all the closeness all the great times this awful shift is so difficult to digest.
I also find your comment about H not being someone to “do the work”... it’s funny how they walk out on years of a strong relationship in need of some tlc but fully feel they can put the “work” into something new. I don’t get it.

Thinking of you Cardinal and hope you’re doing alright (((Cardinal)))
