Jenn, stop. Just — STOP. So you answered my questions the way I thought you would. Thomas is a Godsend. And, Thomas loves you. Do you think he doesn’t know who you are now? Of course he does! Do you really think he can’t find much to love in who you are now? You don’t seem to think so, but you need to give yourself more credit. He knew who you were when he came back to you, and he’s stayed. It’s true that you’re in the fight for your life and it sometimes makes you behave in ways you’d rather not, but it doesn’t change who you are at your core and he fell in love with that person. The fact that you’re so concerned about him right now is just more proof of who you are. So let him decide what’s best for him.

Notice that a bunch of us keep reading you, as well. Jenn, you have so much to offer this world! Learn to love yourself. Even though you’re struggling with a physical addiction, improving your self-esteem would help give you the strength to fight her off once and for all. You are worth fighting for, Thomas obviously thinks so, we think so, now you need to figure that out for yourself. ❤❤❤
