So many of these emotional train wrecks can be avoided by not being so beholden to a specific outcome.
Unless she is your wife, there's no reason to care much at all. Even then, you have to be willing to let go, when necessary.
Always be willing to walk away from anything, if you have to. Anything.
Life goes on, no matter what, unless your dead, then your problems are sorted. lol
