ok ok… I’m late to this because I was having an extended pity party.
I’m over it now… the pity party, that is.
I loved this… LOVED IT!
I especially think you should print your things you’ve learned list and post it EVERYWHERE! So true… so true…

One of the things I’ve learned that I’d add to your list (if, say, we were to make a universal list) would be:
“I have to be able to/ should be able to leave you if it means saving me. No matter how much it might break my heart or tear out a part of me, losing you is nothing compared to losing me.” It’s very similar to your number 2… but it’s a clause that **I** feel is very necessary for me.

LOVE THIS!

Now… we still need to meet for drinks!!! Although it’s going to have to be when I get back as I leave on Tuesday and I’ve a million and one…. no! TWO…a million and TWO things to do before I leave.

Thanks for all your comments. The idea to write a story that sort of combined all my breakup emotions was one that I had percolating around in my head for a few days; it was easy to write, but hard to publish. Thank you for letting me know I made the right choice.

Beautifully done, with all the power of honesty and all the generosity of someone who knows, no matter the situation, that they are not alone in it. We don’t get to pick what happens, only how we deal with it — and you are an inspiration. Thank you.
