I built a social ecosystem again. It failed.

I may or may not has been the victim of an abusive marriage. I'll never know. I'm almost certain that I was gaslighted for many decades. I was co-dependent on the abuse.

But—when the infrastructure collapsed on my family (for the third and final time), the ecosystem that nurtured me earlier…disappeared. Apparently my story then was not of interest to them then.

I lived for thirty years without baseline love from my life partner, and an ecosystem around it that disappeared like bubbles when touched. I lived with no love and no access to trustworthy affirmation.

Look at me! I endured and persevered through adversity.
