Ran into her again today. After the first 4 years post DDay, and running in almost once a week or two….I’ve had nearly 3 years for nothing. Thankfully, while my heart was pounding out of my chest, I just looked through her and continued on my tasks. I think she was more visibly shaken than I. (I hope).
FWH handled is well. I messaged him and eventually, when I knew I was out of ear shot….talked to him on the phone.
What I really need in times like this is for him to say….I’m really glad you gave me a second chance. I’m really glad that you stayed. Those run ins make me feel not good enough on a cellular level. Tried to just keep reminding myself of all the ways I’ve "won". Hard!
