In my case it's directly related to attachment and trauma.
I have issues with abandonment and she did completely abandon me and cut all ties without discussion or reason and it hurt like hell. I be a arm very traumatised afterwards and shocked by her behaviour. It was very malicious and downright evil.
I feel sometimes I am detached and other times I feel I can't live without her. It comes in waves of grief and attachment. It's very difficult to understand let alone process but I believe the detachment will come when I am ready.
My t doesn't work with attachment and doesn't really understand my process, she says I am very invested in suffering but how can you just let go and move on if you still love someone with all of your heart.

Interesting (and sad) situation you described. I'm sorry for your distress. I, too, think there must be a detachment process, whereas, one detaches when the person is ready. But I wonder how it affects our relationships before that happens. Thanks for sharing.
