Ouch. And I find myself feeling it just as badly for her, because if she had only been slightly vocal about what she wanted she very well might have had you worshipping her for life. In a good way.

It's probably best for her, honestly. I really wasn't in a great place then. I have my life mostly together now, but back then I did not.

Well that's a very healthy response.

It kinda makes me want you to get in touch and pick up where you left off to continue this story! My dopamine demands it, lol.

But I'm worried that if you are still in touch, she lives 1,000 miles away and/or has a family.
