Thanks so much for your thoughtful reply. It’s quite a challenge to navigate through this. Unfortunately, at an unconscious level, it aligns with abandonment issues that I have from childhood. I know he’s retiring, I know he’s not abandoning me, but my brain circuitry doesn’t really understand that yet. I’m trying to look at it as an opportunity for a fresh start, but when you share things with someone for three decades that you don’t share with anyone else there is a visceral bond that forms that is very hard to imagine dissolving. Thanks again.
