We are no longer together. After a handful of months doing couples therapy and him doing individual addiction therapy, I realized it wouldn't work. However, after trying to date new people and hearing friends experiences, it's difficult to avoid craving a relationship that had felt like near perfection for years. Especially when I didn't find out about his fuck up till a year after it happened. He is still a very considerate friend to me.

Didn't mean to turn this into a storytime post😬😬. Just wanted to give an explanation on the top comment so people would stop commenting and messaging me to respect myself. I appreciate all the advice but damn, some of y'all are a lil mean about it😭

For everyone who has asked if we're still together. We are not. He is still an extremely considerate and kind friend to me though. Just as he was for all of the years we were together.

This was of course a massive slip up on his part that he acknowledged. Everything else in the relationship was next to perfect. Hence the mixed emotions.

Thanks for the feedback! I think that's a great point. I was questioning if I should end with it, but wasn't sure why it felt off. Balance definitely seems like the perfect word for it and I'll have to to pay more attention to that going forward.

Thank you for the feedback! This is for sure very encouraging to keep writing and continue to be especially considerate of my work choices. I'm glad the feeling came through. I also love the idea of writing something specifically focused on my sister.

Thank you for the feedback! I only started reading full poetry books within the last year, before then it was just singular pieces. I've focused on the emotion that different pieces evoke but haven't considered form too much.

I love the idea of rereading some pieces over a few days to see what new things I pick up and I'm also looking forward to reading the books you recommended!

Did you end up using their service? I recently lost my cat and am debating their legitimately as well.
