It&#8217;s all documented and everything.  (Although to be fair to myself, there&#8217;s clearly a LOT that I left out, a few paragraphs every so often, sometimes with months in between, can only capture so much right?  Right?).<\/p>\n<p>I also came to the conclusion that I actually don&#8217;t remember my past in much specific detail, just vague notions and hazy impressions.  Memory is a tricky thing.<\/p>\n<p>This actually makes me feel better about myself.  Incredibly, I am WAY less crazy than I was in college.  How did this happen?  I have no idea.  Seems like most of my issues revolved around trust, sort of a given considering my family history.  <\/p>\n<p>But I now routinely send my husband out to social events on his own <I>by my own preference<\/i>.  Including ones that involve partying with the boys (although, the event he was sent off to solo tonight due to my illness is probably more likely to end in hide-and-seek with the kids than anything remotely unseemly).  I won&#8217;t lie, I still have my flashes of extremely crazy paranoid jealousy, but I am now able to hide them quite well and talk myself down from the inevitable argument ledge before I get too close.<\/p>\n<p>So what changed?  No clue.  Maybe it&#8217;s something about Paul or maybe I was finally ready to let some of that stuff go.  Maybe the constant jealousy just became too exhausting to sustain.  Maybe it&#8217;s a function of being older and more removed from the root cause of those feelings.    <\/p>\n<p>The point is, as much as I sometimes feel like I&#8217;m running in place, I have been moving forward all this time after all.  And in the spirit of moving forward, I think I&#8217;m pretty much done talking about all of this now.  No promises, of course.<\/p>\n<p><small>Kind of glad right now that very few people read this anymore as I have the very distinct feeling that I will be quite embarrassed by all this feverish writing when I look back in a few days.<\/small><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I don&#8217;t know why I did it.
