Apologies before the ramble begins, it will be long and tangential. Anywho, having been diagnosed with OCPD, I almost feel a relief that I'm able to pinpoint the problem. On the other hand (heh), however, I have a new issue. It doesn't fix or undo what was lost, what I couldn't uphold, or maintain prior to this moment. It doesn't fix the one relationship that I can honestly say I wanted to maintain, and it raises questions for the future, as in am I not meant to have relationships because I inately cannot lower my "expectations." I do not view it completely negatively, I must admit even to myself, I have been taking steps forward. It's just a matter of not knowing to what.

There is no need to apologize. We are great listeners here. I just want to tell you that you are right in not lowering your expectations. You should never have to "settle" for anyone or anything that is less than what you want.
