[QUOTE="flutterby, post: 264971, member: 7083"] My answer is no, because by the time I cut off contact I have been used up, fed up and am not dealing with it anymore. But, I've also been told that I'm better at detaching than some. So, that may have something to do with it. I don't the dwell on what I wish it had been because that just keeps the emotional attachment and it drags me down. I focus on the "what it is" because we all know you certainly can't change anyone. You can only change how you react to it. I refuse to let someone constantly make me feel bad, push me down, hurt me, what have you. And if that is how someone consistently treats me, that is not someone I want in my life. And I let it go and move on. [/QUOTE]
