9. I can only say that you will get over it when you want to get over it.....

certainly not when someone else says to get over it.......simple, right, no it is not simple, ....speaking about my own experience, I realized that I was the only one suffering for the feelings that I was having about someone that could care less about my feelings let alone his own.....or anyone else's for that matter.....so it just came to me after some self study, that I was not loving myself and worse, being destructive to my own feelings....which contributed to more self destructive attitudes and feelings.....and you get the circling effects going on inside yourself...very destructive......your decision to take yourself off rotation was also the best thing you could do for yourself and patients.....and most importantly, protecting another human being is never ever bad, unless you are enabling, then that behavior is disabling for everyone involved in that relationship......please keep on sharing
