Dear Seaturtle:

Before I leave for the day: I don’t think that N had let go of you, and not as easily as he appeared to have done last evening. I think that he knows how attached you have been to him for so long, so he’s playing it cool, waiting for you to break and get back to him.. or he contacts you with more appearances of feeling defeated, stunned and whatnot, knowing that a big part of you is very motivated to believe what ever he says because (that big part of you) does not want to break up with him. I think that he feels that he invested in you too much (money, time, whatnot), and he is not willing to give up on his investment.

I am worried that you may be very conflicted/ distressed as you read this (?) and I don’t want to add to your distress, so please, feel comfortable to take a break from our communication for as long as you need to, or limit our conversation to other topics.. whatever is best for you at this time.

In any case, I will be back to the computer Fri morning. Please take good care of yourself!
