I think photos can be a bit of a challenge for you in that most of her power over you was due to your physical attraction towards her. The rest was an illusion you built up and believing that you could change the unhealthy things. Now you have slowly been seeing the reality through the heavy emotional fog you had been trapped in. There is a grieving process in finally accepting how what you thought existed just didn’t. Little by little you were able to describe what would have been a better partner for you and there is value in that when it comes to opening up towards finding a better partner for yourself.

You are growing through and past this life challenge. 👍🥰
