Busto thanks for coming back to share that.

Congratulations on the new development. Your post is spot on.

Most important I think is the fact that you figured out what wasn't working and stopped.

Let her alone.

Took yourself out of the equation.

Removed the bullseye from your back.

And lived your life like she wasn't coming back.

Then it was YOUR choice to make.

Good for you.
