You probably already know the rational thoughts around it and your using E2 as your primary positive motivator at this time seems to support that, just don't let yourself completely discount the irrational, emotional side of it. 4.5 years is definitely a good chunk of time to spend with someone and it's certainly natural for it to be considered akin to a loss, whether the breakup is mutual or not, so I guess make sure the emotional parts of you have some sort of reassurance that things will be ok.
You seem to know what you're doing re H&C and I don't expect any advice or suggestions I could give to be something you haven't heard before, just know that even if it's people you haven't met in person you have a potential support system if you need it.
Thanks, man. I am amazed at how this has hit me. The only other time I have had anything hit me like this was when my mother died.
E2 has me functional, but circumstances are conspiring to make that a very slow "functional", because of this and the models being wonky right now.
But I appreciate your support.
