It always felt it ironic that if I were to ever go to him describing the same relationship as ours, but with someone else, he would have jumped all over it. That seems to be the impression that I get from all of your here.
Anyone have a good and healthy "break-up" story to share?

Except for the last one, each of the endings I have had has been basically a non-event. I just stopped because nothing much was happening.
The one that ended badly 1.5 yrs ago had an ending that was characterized by denial, defensiveness, erratic behavior, shifting reasoning, blaming, and with a little bit of honesty given reluctantly. She was kind and compassionate only when she was in control of the narrative.
