Finally, acceptance!
After riding the roller-coaster of ups and downs on the 5 stages of grief, I can finally say that I feel like I'm off it. I have reached acceptance.
I realized that I don't want a man in my life like that. In the end, he showed that he didn't respect me, value me, and that I couldn't trust him. There's just nothing left in that. No matter how much I missed our old days, the good times, time showed that we were not a good pairing.
The anger has dissipated, and I can finally wish him luck and peace. I always strive to be able to have goodwill for my exes. And it was bothering me for a time that I could never get there with him because of all of the anger I was still harboring.
Don't get me wrong, just because I wish him goodwill, doesn't mean I will be talking to him or becoming his friend. I won't be. But I also won't be hoping the worst for him, or festering in hate.
