Thank you, I appreciate that. And I initially wasn't, either, I was hoping for an actual relationship. But I figured in the end, maybe something like that would be...fairer to the situation I left behind. With my husband and son.

Oh, I know. It's like 'hello, how are you, things are going to fuck you up at some point and there's nothing you can do about it, have a cup of stew!' They must think we're quite mad.
