Beautiful, Rachel! No-one can be blamed for wanting connection, don't we all? When we choose to ignore someone's downsides & focus on what attracts us to them, that's a good thing. Every relationship needs handfuls of forbearance and tolerance. But when the amount of ignoring you're doing gets so high you can't ignore it, you have to think again, and that must've been heartbreaking because you were working so hard. I'm so glad you have Sam.
