I'm assuming you were talking to me?
I'm not sure it took courage. I have my issues and I have my strengths. And I just couldn't make myself believe what she wanted me to believe this time. I couldn't make myself do what she wanted me to do (nothing horrible, except to the extent it compromised what I believed and valued) That's not true for all things. There are things I believed from her that I now question. So I guess part of it was some luck. or maybe she was looking to push me away, and pushed me to believe things until she found one I couldn't believe so that she created the rupture. I don't know. Maybe.
I've worked out a lot. Grateful for many things. Sometimes glad she kicked me out cuz I found a terrific T, which I never would have found if I stayed with her. I imagine some part of me will always hurt. But it's a lot less often. And the times in between when it hurts are longer and longer. I think I'm at a place where, knowing what I know how, given all that I have gained, I would do it again, despite the pain. Maybe.
