No, it doesn't sound harsh, but to clarify, it wasn't to mention a possible replacement lover. Far from it. My point was it was good to hear that she regretted breaking up with me! I don't want anything more than friendship on that count. I would just like to hear that my current W also has regrets. But yep, this anguish is real. And I can give W all the time and space she needs. I'm just confused if I've ever told her the lengths I would go to. I would like her to know how committed I am to making our M work.
