Well, I guess I didn't state very clearly the point I was trying to make with the quote you included, which shouldn't surpise you. I was not trying to minimize the choice she made. I'm sure she did what she thinks was best for her. I don't know the exact dynamic of how the choice was given to her. The main point I was trying to make was that the breakup wasn't something we both mutually came upon after reflecting upon the situation (which is what we should have done), instead it was a rather abrupt and unexpected end. Had it happened the first way, I probably would be mostly over it by now. But the way it happened left too many threads dangling, too many items that will never get closure.
I know intuitively that I need to make a complete break, but how do I make my mind just stop thinking about her.
"self-deceptive and self-serving" Words that describe me well.
"Energy expending toward the other woman, is energy stolen from your wife, your children and your marriage" And you forgot from me and my own journey to a better image of myself.
