I know this is going to sound bad but at the moment, I can’t think of anything I’ve done recently. That being said, some members of my family recall that I was an emotional support for my now ex girlfriend when we dated as teenagers for her as she had a very hard life prior to meeting me. This was one of the thing most people brought up as I went through my crazy state following our breakup in trying to make me see that what we had was good but that it just didn’t work. I was not myself during this time and I continued to regress in terms of progress towards being able to accept that she was gone and continually blamed her for things she had no idea were happening and problems that I was causing and not her in the years following the end of our relationship when I knew she was gone and that I was never going to see her again or have contact with her, when I knew she had moved on with her life, ETC. I don’t mean to keep bringing this up as she is now considered a dead topic to me almost 20 years after we stopped having contact with each other and she had been gone from my life for years before that. The point is that I can now see that relationship for what it was and I now see that I did help her a lot during our relationship.
