Thanks you so much for your responses. They made me laugh and cry and ultimately start dealing with reality which, frankly, I didn’t want to do until now.
Miss Honeychurch, I could almost hear my ex-T’s voice. It meant so much to me that I won’t be forgotten and that I can still write from time to time. And yes, the boundaries protect both of us and he has my best interests at heart. It’s good to remember that.
10der, I’m glad it sounded like your ex-T too. I think it’s wonderful that you’re able to reduce contact gradually like that. He sounds wonderful.
Pinkeye, it helped so much to know he might still be thinking about me, and that he didn’t want me to feel too hurt about it, and that he understood me even though I didn’t say it. And that I should do my best to be a full human being. And you’re right: he can’t be friends with everyone because it wouldn’t be fair.
I’m deeply touched by your willingness to respond and by your care for me. Hugs to all of you.
Tamar
