Though with the example given? I see what the issue is, but it wouldn't be my issue. My friends are active & busy people. They've got other shit going on in their lives. Often times bigger than mine.

Canceling meets means they're still alive and well enough to mind commitments like lil me. Which is a good thing & cheers to them.

I'm sorry, I was spaced out and didn't read what you wrote accurately. I must have been thinking of something else (my own situation). In fact the relationship is very similar in your examples.

I congratulate you on your actions and self respect. He reminds me of my husband. I only wish I could get out of it like you did.
