Dear Sylvie:

I do hope you find an affordable and decent place to live very soon.

Back to the quote from back then: “my journey is to believe and trust in myself”- a worthy journey.

This journey re-started when you told him that you “not sure I want to be there anymore” and it continues today and every day. That is the nature of this kind of journey: it doesn’t start when you find a place of your own, it starts now.

Avoid communication with him except for what is absolutely necessary for practical reasons. Set a goal for yourself: to not reach out to him in any way, shape or form and resist today, tonight and every day from now on, the compulsion, the impulse to reach out once again.

Practice and it will get easier, over time.
