Bill you did well to get through my story. Like everyone lots of ups and downs.
W went away for a couple of days out of town and there was no contact . it was great.
I did stuff i enjoyed and did not have to worry about W turning up , I realy came to the realisation that I am quite happy by myself and comfortable to go forward in life without W if thats what it takes. Sure it wont be easy financialy but thats just another challenge.
So W arives home tired from her trip and I am busy with fixing something so look up and say hi and go back to what I was doing ( tangled in wiring ) . After I had finished I joined her for a coffee and some small talk . Shes keen to head back to her place. A bit later I get dinner on and sit with a beer she says you didnt offer me one so I offer and she accepts . Ends up staying for Dinner , I clean up and then head off for a walk and when back did some other work while she is indoors watching TV. After a while she leaves , finding me and saying goodby in the process.
She seemed a bit uneasy and perhaps has spotted my shift in the way I feel because now she is being super nice , wanting to help out with stuff ...mmmm
I think I will stay backed off where I am happy for now and observe.
