Thanks OT. I think though I accept my responsibility for where we have ended up together, I also have an amazing amount of forgiveness for her present and recent actions in this mess, which for good or bad, allows me to see the light through the clouds. I know I can't force that to her, but I am also very worried about her as she does not have a very positive support system, and is alone and scared too. Her vindictiveness, as I see it, is a just a result of her not really wanting this, but believing the bad advice of her biased friends and family. Her denial is so strong it is very self-destructive. I feel so cruel by walking away and GAL, even though she is acting in the extreme negative right now. Everyone tells me to protect myself, and yet I am a fool for thinking it's not too late to save our M, even as the boxes of her half-packed items are littering our place.
