If that's your concern, you may be pleased to know that quite the opposite is true.
While I agree that many people seek out shallow answers from anyone who seems to have an ounce of confidence, people are better served by genuine human connection (with all its inherent flaws) rather than guru worship.
It seems like you're trying to project a lot of pain onto this situation. Speaking only for myself (not for Erin), there is some sadness, sure, but please understand that much of the emotional processing regarding my separation from Erin happened over a period of years. So even though other people are just learning about it now, the roots go way back, and at present I'm honestly feeling a tremendous amount of joy, happiness, and relief for finally reaching that "light at the end of the tunnel" place.
I understand why people may need/expect me to feel bad about it, but it's too difficult for me to experience such emotions right now. I am becoming happier and happier with each passing day. Perhaps some people see that as a betrayal of reality. For me it's nothing of the sort. If I pretended to be depressed when I'm feeling excited and happy, that would be dishonest.
