Discussed situation more yesterday. She says she feels things are going better between us. She doesn't have desire to hug or kiss me (but says she would if it would make me feel better). That I declined. She just doesn't know how to get rid of the feelings she has for the OM. She asks if I want her to stop working out with him--I tell her she needs to decide for herself (of course, I think she does). She is worried that it will complicate her life at the gym and that she'll never lose weight if she stops.
She asked if I wanted her to move out. I told that I didn't want that. I just wanted things with OM to be over. She is worried that I am going to be mad and "mean" to her. I tell her I have no desire to be mean to her--I'm just going to continue to work on being friends. She says she won't discuss feelings for OM with me anymore--I don't know if that is good or bad.
It still feels like one step forward, two steps back. Something tells me it may feel that way for awhile.
