I wanted to give a little update since I haven’t posted in a while. I’m in the National Guard and have been dealing with the riots in our great nation. Unfortunately, during this time I have been strung out and exhausted and that’s compounded my stress on top of my R with W. I contacted her and fell back into the same narrative about wanting her to change her mind, I know I know, I’m stressed. After talking to my sister, I’ve decided that I can’t be friends with my W right now, it not doing me any good and I’m allowing it to feed me false hope. Contacted W this morning and told her that I wanted to be her husband and not her friend, I was not going to be her second choice. Going dark and I feel really good about my decision.
