I feel like your ideal situation is certainly much closer to what I'd prefer as well. Perhaps not for the exact reasons but close enough. I'd like to remember the place but not anyone in it lest I be alone in my misery. But with memories of people, there's bound to be memories of faces, desperate to push back to the surface.
Can't have all my cakes and eat it, I suppose. I think if anyone had asked me this question before I made all these meaningful connects, I would've easily said I'd like to forget it all. Nowadays, I'm more inclined to cling to that and suffer through the painful emotions like some sort of masochist. Realistically, forgetting it would be much better. Being useless and jaded even further would only be counter-productive. Not to mention it would make no sense to those who have never experienced living on Prismatica back home.
Your resolve is impressive. I do hope something close to your ideal situation happens for you.
