I am starting to understand the "not giving up" thing. I recalled the other day that I was repeated asked to "not give up" on a certain someone. And I didn't. I look back now and I realize that I gave him everything I could, including as many chances that he asked for. In the end, he was the one who gave up. Sadly though I still haven't. We don't speak, I haven't heard from him since February, and that cold message still stings, but I haven't given up hope that one day we will be together, if only for companionship and nothing more. I have to feed this fantasy, because to let the dream die means I die as well.
So therefore, I have an announcement to make. Sunny, I admire what you are doing. To instill faith in the untrustable is something not many would or could do. I understand how much you love this man.
Now, having said that, I also understand others aprehension about your SO and the fear they have for you and your safety. It's a natural feeling to be worried about someone who seems to be jumping out of the frying pan into the fire. I know I feel that way towards you as well. But I just wanted to say that even though I feel it is very possible that this man will hurt you again in the future, I realize and understand why you are doing what you are doing. Who knows right? Who really knows but you and him......
