Hi GF - thanks for checking in on my sitch. I think W is less trying to keep me close than making herself feel better - if we D as friends, everything is okay. In her world, we'll create the agreement between ourselves, wait out the 6 months doing our separate things, and then poof - done. We can be friends and she's free to be with OM unhindered. Easy. There will never be a disintegration with OM in her world.
Hi Puppy - since the decision, I feel like I'm ready to release. I know it won't be that easy, and I'm going to T to make sure I do this right, but just going out and getting D books made me feel better. I was actually able to focus on work today!
Long road ahead, but I have to preserve my values and W showed herself not to have any. Or at least they're misplaced at best. What's weird is that I had saved her voicemail from 3 weeks ago asking to move back in. Went to delete it today and had forgotten how emotional she'd been - pleading with me to let her come back, telling me how wrong she'd been, but demanding that the only way to fix things was her way. Oh well, now I know what the crocodile tears look like.
