Hope, I think you can be cautiously optimistic. It is nice that she called you. She could have easily made up excuses to your family why you couldn't come. I'm glad you went and had a good time. I think the more time you spend together having fun is definitely positive. It's like you are able to get away from walking on eggshells for the evening.
Cautiously optimistic is the operative word here. I was thinking the same thing about her not really needing to call so that boosted my moral a bit. All of about two minutes or so.
I got an email from W this afternoon with a link to a local lawyer that does mediation. She wants to set up an appointment with him. I'm sensing that this is the beginning of the end. I hate this feeling, but I also think I will be relieved to put this past us.
Does everyone else on this board get the subtle feedback that there is nothing they can do that is right? I've been feeling that every little misstep I've made in the past week is magnified to fantastic proportions by my W. She seems to have been ultra critical of me recently.
