I do feel positive about how last night's brief conversation went. I was happy to accomodate her needs, of course - esp. since she sounded so drained.
A few thoughts/communications with friends:
1) A friend of ours who recently talked to my W (on Thurs/Fri) after just learning about this from me on Thurs said that W sounded/said she was completely certain D was what she wanted. Bleh.
2)As for her asking me to think about gaming: Apparently, she and "B" (the not-exactly-OM friend) had talked about making gaming work either on a rotational cycle (she plays one week, I do the next). Recently, they talked about the idea of us gaming at the same time.
So, it sparks the questions: Is gaming so important to her she's willin to deal with whatever? OR is our relationship so fundamentally done for her that she thinks that I should be able to move on, too? (I haven't chased, and I've been understanding of her position, so I might be projecting giving up?).
3) I shared an anecdote about the brillance of our (HER, w/ this story! hehe) cats that was on a more light/funny note. Thurs morn, I fed the cats. Got home from work at 3:30 and gave them a "snack", then headed out again. Room-mate gets home at 5pm and then feeds the cats because they seem super-desperate for food. Devious, manipulative little devils! :P
Whew. OK. So now I understand why there's so many long posts here on DB. Even if you don't expect all of your comments to be addressed, it feels good to get thoughts off your chest.
