Out of the Blue?

Well she responded to the email saying that she does not mind if I started dating. And that I deserve to be happy. What!?!? I have never stated or hinted that I ever wanted anyone but her. I do not want to date at all.

I emailed her back telling her that i had no desire to date and that I made a choice years ago, that it sucks that we are having to go through this crisis apart, but that ultimately i want whatever will make her happy and that i hope she understands that i will always be there for her if she needs me. I did not mention anything about love or getting back together.

Normally, I would not respond, but since she is very hesitent about communicating in person, I am figuring that she will feel more comfortable doing it via email. After this last one, I am going to pull back a bit more.

Today just has not been going well. It is cold and dreary outside, the 2 year old is sick and has been crying all morning, and then the email from her. I am going to go and try to relax.
