Hello Anita

I think you are right. A simple answer like “Yes”, “No problem”, etc. will serve the purpose.

Before I left the country and we broke up, we talked about how to take care of my stuff when I am gone. He would constantly say “Anything you want, baby. Just let me know what you want.”

That’s why his response this time hit me so hard. “Anything you need, as always” comes with some lingering feelings from my perspective. Honestly, it creates a glimpse of hope as I have been trying so hard to let go completely.

I finally understand why most people suggest NC.
