    Thanks man. I appreciate this. Sorry you went through that. I think the thing I’m mostly conflicted about the feeling of “mourning.” I don’t want this dude back in my life but it does suck that I don’t have a best friend any more. I’m already introverted as it is, so making friends has always been tricky. Now in my late age, I think I’m just going to be going the rest of my life without that sort of relationship ever again.

      Mourning is absolutely the right word for it. It’s the death of a relationship and of an era for you. Just because the individual isn’t actually deceased isn’t going to make it hurt any less.

      For me I definitely felt a lot of that, along with anger and betrayal, sadness… Frustration.

      If you want to vent about it feel free to dm me.

      I hate that I don’t have friends like that anymore, even though I know I did the right thing. I sucks so fucking much
