A few years ago I had to stop dating as it was very disorded and unhealthy. The things I see...

Thank you for this perspective. It's so hard for me because I have so much compassion and love for her... and I know she was in a terrible spot and it badly hurts me on the inside since it feels like it's my fault I triggered her so bad that her whole life was blown up... It's hard not to take it personal. It kills me even more to not have any idea how she is doing. I believed in our love and kept hope alive she would reach back out when she said she would, but as I am understanding... It's not going to be a simple fix for her.

I did what I could.... constantly reminding her I will always be there for her the times we talked on the phone during the period where she isolated within the relationship and in a couple of emails reaffirming that I am still here for her after she said she needed a clean break despite her feeling back towards me. There's nothing else I can or will do but leave her be. She knows how strong my feelings are for her and I just pray every night she is getting better and moving happily forward with her life.
