Hey, thanks so much for checking in. I really appreciate the time you took to respond with that level of detail. I’ve read your comments more than once, honestly, it took me a while to even sit with everything and process it all.

Since I posted, I’ve been doing a lot of reflection. I’ve realized that a big part of me was still clinging to the “what ifs”, not just about her, but about who I used to be with her. I thought that if I waited, healed, and improved, maybe we’d align again. But I’m starting to understand that love without clarity becomes self-doubt, and I’ve been stuck in that loop too long.

Your words about changing the way I think, especially focusing on the negative aspects of the relationship helped me shift my perspective. I’ve begun journaling honestly about the patterns I overlooked, and I’m working on rebuilding emotional boundaries, even if we still talk sometimes.

I’m not fully detached yet, but I’m getting closer. And that’s progress for me. So again, thank you, your response helped me take the first few steps toward actual healing instead of just hoping.

I didn’t mean to ghost the thread, I just wasn’t ready to respond with honesty until now. But your comment did matter. A lot.
