Here is how I see things Brit. Your W is having the chance to see how much you have changed while you are in her house. She is also seeing that you are not putting any pressure on her. Once you move out she will have a lot to think about.
We'll see what happens when I move out - She certainly seems to have a lot on her mind at the moment.
I came home tonight with D and W was wandering around her house. I was friendly and asked if she had a good day. First response was "it was okay". A few minutes later she started talking about how she got really dizzy after lunch and didn't feel good. Then it turned into "I think i had a panic attack, so I went and drove around for a while". I guess she ended up at Kohl's to buy some t-shirts on her little drive. Tonight she was pretty chatty, but she just seems 'off'.
She told me a story about OM - Something about how the place he rents with his mom leaks, but they won't move. There was also some story about how they pay their rent in cash and the landlord hasn't been around to get it for a while. Basically a bunch of really weird shady stuff. I was friendly about it and talked a bit about it, but I've no idea why she suddenly came out with that. I really don't care.
D is already in bed, and W and I are hanging out downstairs. She's ignoring everyone who is IMing her, which is curious. I wonder what REALLY happened today.

Good idea - I'll have to dig into that sometime. Usually evenings are chaos because by the time I get D fed, she's ready to go for her bath and head to bed. Unless dinner is involved, it's difficult to do much with her.
