Hey Mink,

Just read my my last post on your thread...looks like somehow it didn't get put up on the site until quite a bit later after I posted it somehow! I'm sorry because it may have come across as completely wacko--you had just had this very upsetting experience and are reading me saying "looks like it's all good" (!!). The timing of the message was totally off...I don't understand how this happened because I certainly wouldn't have posted that kind of response if I had read the change in your sitch. Maybe we were posting around the same time?! Anyway, sorry if this seemed so out of whack with your sitch. This must have been some kind of site delay in the posting.

In any case, I wanted to say that this must be really confusing to sort out...I mean, she seems to be quite comfortable with the ML part--and has initiated this too, but then she is saying that it "messes her head up". That's confusing to me.

Part of what you described sounds a little like something from my sitch. About a month ago, my W. asked me if I was still in IC. I said yes and asked if she was going to IC also. I got this blank, completely puzzled look back from her and she said, "Me? What do I need to go to IC for? I'm doing fine." (almost like I had asked her something that was completely ridiculous) This was in the midst of so much incredibly confusing and contradictory messages that I was receiving from her. This is crazymaking stuff sometimes, hey MM?

Well, things do seem to have settled down a little...I like the firecracker vs. bomb idea! Though I gotta say, that was one h_ll of a firecracker. If anyone can stay grounded and hold a difficult course, it's you, MM!
