OMG! OMG! I LOVE what you did! And I LOVE his response! Dont you see? He is trying to process your decision. He doesnt need to say good-bye while processing. He is respecting your decsion, he doesnt need to agree with it, he just needs at this point to respect it. And, Rainbow, I see you respecting yourself and your decision as well. You told him, let him process. You need what you need, you have the money for it today, so you have decided what you want to do. WOW! If you allow him his feelings it is not a reflection on you, they are his feelings and he will choose how to deal with them. What do you say?
