You know we're both here for you, any hour of the day or night, though of course in our sedate old age as we are, we'd rather see you in bed by 8PM sharp.
You can't, of course, turn your back on your family. They're yours, no matter what, and they're a chunk of you. You learn the gentle art of balance, and find your happiness with them in separate times and places, if need be. And some of your family you lose, yes, but you lean a bit on the woman you love, and it's okay.
It's hard, but it's not comfortless. We're here.
Cos living your life faked, as Em said, it's not worth it at all.
