Olive, you are making perfuct sense to me... I hate that my W does not want to... no refuses to share her life with me now. I guess that is one of the ways GAL helps us deal with this void.
I have to admit to you all I have been with my W since I was 19 and never dated much before her. My life was sports up to that point I had no time or real interest in dating. Until my W caught my attention. Now it scares the crap out of me thinking about entering the dating world. I was always reliefed and felt lucky that this was a world that I never really had to go into. Now I might be getting forced into it. Sorry about that this was on my mind and I only have you all to share that with...
Next, I agree with you. All we can do is love our W's unconditionally and have no expectations of any sort from them. My W has not told me that she hates me, she says that she wants to but cannot. I do not know what that is supposed to mean, my guess at this point is that it is not positive. I sometimes think that it must be nice that our WAW's can live in a Fantasy world like they are, it helps numb them to the realities that they are going to have to face. I sometimes wish that I could be numb to all of this, but, on the other hand this sitch is really allowing me to grow and see who I really am as a person.
