Frank, pardon me for a minute but you've still got the thermometer in her ass.
You're still trying to cause a reaction.
Stay on task.
Maybe a little. The thing is I am getting reactions, and they hurt. It's not easy to feel them, but as they happen I get more and more weary of her and this situation and just want her to go away.
I think I'm also a little afraid that she'll say or do something just to hurt me. I'm not really so 'strong' that I can absorb anything new right now.
I know the task is to 'fix Frank'. Being honest about my feelings with her was empowering. Letting her go and creating a mindset for myself of "I will be happy without her" is a process. Still, 4 weeks ago today she came back from her trip, seemed like she needed me, and I had reached my own bottom and decided that only I could save myself. Then within a day this all starts.
It hasn't been that long. I know it will get better over time.
