Ugh
Life (such an ambiguous term) is pretty okay now. Aeo and I worked things out, mostly. He does not hate me, and we are working on being friends, even if others do not believe it to be wise. My life without him would not be complete. I deserved a lot of his anger and wrath because God knows I screwed things up royally. But he has forgiven me and we are moving forward. Ed has been totally supportive and more than I could have ever asked for, even being willing to let me go if I thought I needed it. But, alas, I know as appealing as that road may sometimes be, going back down it will only land us in more heartache and pain. I chose the path I lead today and I am going to make the most of it. What was cannot ever be regained, and maybe that is for the best. I have a wonderful person who loves me and will make me happy for the rest of my life. And I hope I have a wonderful friend that will still be there for the same duration.
