Can someone give me examples of others who got 'closer' only to suddenly get farther apart?
*raises hand Frank, pull up a chair. About a month ago, after extreme detachment on my part, H. began calling me in what can only be considered stalker-style. Sassy can attest to it; she was with me at brunch while this was going on one day. Anyway, this went on for about 4-5 days. One day he called me no less than 9 times. After work one night during this, he came over unexpectedly. He was acting SO different; very sweet, very upbeat (where did his depression go?) and affectionate, complimentary. I was not sure how to act; I hadn't seen him in 2 weeks and he was behaving like he was very interested in me again. Well, we ended up spending some "alone" time together, and shortly after that, he abruptly left our house. He called me later that night to apologize for this, telling me it was a mistake, that he shouldn't have come by. It was a horrible time for me. I felt very used.
I know this is not a happy story to tell or for you to read, but I think it was what you were looking for.
Most of us really marry only once. First love endures, even unto our dying day. And we never really divorce.
