Hi Cat,

I know he blocked you, but in this situation he needs to know the truth. Or HE’LL internalize it. Have a mutual friend tell him that you couldn’t handle your daughter’s father’s suicide and your parents’ impending (?) divorce. That YOU had a breakdown. Truly. That is what it was. You just acted it out by abruptly breaking up with him.

Ask a professional how you can handle telling your daughter the truth about how her father died when she asks. She WILL ask. Would you rather her to find out through the internet, gossip, or from you?

Best,

Inky
