Today I had to let a fantastic man go after 11 months.
It became clear he is a long way from coming to terms with the breakdown of his marriage/living apart from his dd. I've suspected this but it came to a head this weekend. There is also a mismatch in parenting ethos and I'm uncomfortable about it and have been thinking it would always be a sticking point.
Yet I'm losing an incredible friendship, emotional support, some of the best memories of incredible time spent, someone who finally saw me for 'who' I am. And the most incredible sex imaginable - all this in 11 months. Coming after 14yrs of miserable EA marriage.
I'm in so much pain. In between actual crying, tears are constantly streaming down my face. I feel sick.
My friend took me to the pub but now I'm home I feel utterly, horribly broken. Someone tell me I can recover from this.
