FRI, I hear you. I feel like my relationships with the jabbed are beyond saving, because of their mental state, still masking and generally going along to get along. I am calling this rabbit foot syndrome, as I feel I have chewed off the foot caught in the trap (the relationship) just to save my own life. They are an emotional investment that my lizard brain is telling me to forsake, in an effort to avoid future pain. I know that seems ultra cruel, but I am trying to be ultra honest.

Honestly, a lot of my relationships are probably past saving as well. I may not succeed, but I'm going to go down swinging.

Your choice to go down swinging based on what you went through.

Other people might have gone through worse and choose otherwise.

*WE* don't all have to agree on how to deal with that pain so *YOU* feel better.

That is probably the most humane choice, to try. I commend you .
