I think it's interesting when people read articles and step around the meat of the article like they're afraid to address it. So. I will address it. I think you wrote something profoundly honest and heartfelt. I think you touch on something that nearly everyone experiences at some point. I think we live in a current social landscape where these scenarios play out more and more often.
As for writing. Your writing was subtle and elegant. A few lines really stood out. Where there used to be a spark there is soot. With him I am light.
Thank you for writing this. Looking to acquaint with more of your work.
