I’ve been separated one week and one day. I really thought this would be harder, I thought there would be more tears. I thought it would hurt more. Yeah, it hurts and I’m lonely and all the usual stuff… but… *looks around and considers her life a moment…* I’m actually doing pretty damn good! I have made it. And I don’t plan to stop making it any time soon.

Thank you for listeni… uh… reading.

Thank you for reals.

I don't think that's strange -- when She Who Must Not Be Named and I split, the anxiety leading up to the split was much worse than the post-split reality. Making the decision was the really hard part.

You faced the cut and the damage- time to heal. Don't live in the wound if you don't need to. Grieve it, but don't live in it.
