Just wanted to add that me partially recommiting to this R . . doesn't change my plans for myself AT ALL . . .
I am still getting my license (as a matter of fact he is giving me the car this weekend )
I am still looking for work (hopefully the school will be starting interviews this next week)
I am still learning to love myself and keeping my happiness resting in my lap NOT his.
Never again will I allow my total self-worth and happiness to rest on someone else's shoulders.
