An even more challenging proposition is that he actually existed to begin with :D

I will gently invite you to consider the issue of "ownership." We cannot really "own" anybody - especially as it relates to emotions. Also, "sharing" is not something you should worry much about. Each love experience is different and unique. Love is not something that comes in a pre-set...

Thanks so much!!!

I apologize for being overly harsh. Couldn't think of any better way to tell you that *this is not your fault.* Hang in there, and don't let any bitterness from this ordeal override your future will to trust people who will be more worthy of your trust. Sincerely, Kevin T. Thanks for your...

Exactly. That part of the whole thing affected me...because the expectation was that I was supposed to miraculously read her mind. Oh well...
