So, what's the best way to end it then? I don't want to leave angry but I also don't want it to be like there's a chance we'll speak again. I need a hard line without being mean.

I've tried closing it off. I've said goodbye, but I don't mean it. It's getting uncomfortable for me in so many ways now, though, so I need to break away.

It seems easier to turn to a higher source when he ends it, because the depression leads to soul searching. I hope me ending it will lead there as well.
