Maybe I ought to sit down with myself, write out how awful she actually was, and read it every time I find myself idolizing her in order to break the habit.
It's also hard because I feel stupid that I would pick someone like her let alone stay with her when things turned sour. I'm ready to be done giving her mind space.

I did tell my therapist that I idolize her. My therapist is also aware that I suck at letting people go, but I never mentioned feeling abandoned specifically. That's not the first time someone suggested I have those traits though. Nonetheless, if I do, it might just be traits and not the full thing.
