I admire your desire to leave with as much good will as possible. I am not sure I had that in mind at all - I was just so angry. Relationships that had endured for years were severed. Hurtful words were spoken, on both sides - but maybe more on my side. Happily, most of those friendships have been restored but it took a long time. So I admire your desire and efforts to leave as gently as possible. I wish you well.
