That which I have been avoiding talking about

Since this blog is more of an informative type blog, than a personal blog, you may not have noticed that I have been avoiding a topic. I am still avoiding my insight into the topic but I figure at least for now I can tell you that my blogging buddy Zandria did a great job summing up the topic which I have been avoiding. Do you stay or do you go?

I chose GO! Three years, my heart, my soul and a gorgeous diamond ring all over. As Meredith would say "It’s over … so over."

  • My best friend chose GO too..it was really hard, but sometimes you just KNOW it's the right thing. It's a good thing in life to be able to trust your own judgment, even when that choice hurts so much.
  • I'm in such awe of your strength and bravery... how many people would choose "stay" just because it's easier in the short term? Too many. I'm sorry for the pain I'm sure you're feeling and I hope you get through the darkest part soon.
  • There sure are a lot of us in this position right now.

    It sometimes helps to know that you're not alone...
  • Aw, elysa, I am so sorry.
  • Olivia
    i love you. i'm proud of you. and there are countless others who feel the same way.
  • almost exactly a year ago i did the same thing. 3.5 years, my heart, my soul, and a gorgeous ring, and i gave them all up too. i'm hurting for you. :(
  • Wow, Elysa. On one hand I want to say, "That's awesome!" On the other hand I want to say, "I'm sorry." I think there has to be a little bit of both in there, right?

    The informative blog vs. the personal blog kind of sounds better and better every day. I'm really not all that interesting, but there are THINGS out there that are interesting. :)
  • I admire your honesty, Elysa. It's something not everyone can put out in the open. <3
  • We'll get through this together my dear! Crazy texts and all :)

  • I don't want to use the word heroic because I'm afraid you'll think I'm being sarcastic... but... heroic.
  • Obviously, I don't know the story, but I've read your comment on Michelle's blog. I admire you for being so strong.
  • Thanks for posting about this, although vaguely - it's enough to see how strong you are being. I admire you!
