Just thought I would give everybody a quick update on what is going on. I have gotten a a few PM's from folks, and thought I should just share this with everyone.
I am doing a little better day by day. It has been a month since she last spoke to me, and she never gave me any final conclusion or or goodbye or that she was moving on...or anything. I tried to call a couple of times just to talk, but got hung up on.
I have time to clear my head and talk to plenty of friends who gave me some insight I never saw before.
I heard from her daughter a few days ago, and she pretty much said her mom seems like she is trying to figure things out, but that there were several things that bothered her about me. That was a huge shock, as those things were never brought up, or me given a chance to correct them. Believe me, I know I have made mistakes, have flaws, and am far too sappy, passionate and clingy (she always said she enjoyed those things about me) and I could have done things a lot better, but to realize the person that says they love you and will always be there might not care enough to bring problems to your attention and discuss them is eye opening indeed. I also realized, from her daughter, that it was a matter of everything pretty much being my fault...like I said, I know I made mistakes, but to not even acknowledge the fact there were things she might have done wrong sends a big message to me.
End the end, it wasn't worth her effort because she didn't really care like she said she did. That is enough for me, anyway, to start trying to go on with out her. Even though I still miss her and love her dearly, I don't think I would be too willing to start up with her again if she came back.
So, one day at a time...bit by bit!
