Hi Anita,

As you know, I am always hopeful.  I feel he and I both know there was a time when everything was very easy and right.  Our lives were very intertwined.  He was my best friend.  The challenges of this past year have harmed me in ways that will take some time to undo.  Trust being one of them.  I protected my heart after my abusive ex, and when you let someone in, and they end up harming you again, you feel you cannot trust anyone…not with your heart.

He says “we waited until our lives were at the end of our existence in this world.  Our youth long gone.”  Which I can only interpret as we came together later in life to be together until the end.  Our youth (past) is long gone.”  My thought was….I’ve been saying this for a year!

I’ll be honest in saying it feels good that he thinks of me, and, as my psychologist would say, of course he is.  But, I need to know what’s going on in therapy.  That question will be asked this weekend when he contacts me.
