the talks happened two days ago. yesterday h again said that he feels attracted to me and asked for a kiss, a hug, to have tea, if not tea than just sex
no was the answer to all. he asked to talk. i answered with a question why he thinks that talking will make any difference this time. he said that quantity will transpire into quality at some time, that it helps him to understand himself better. i told him that i think he would be better off reading a book. he said that he doesn't want to read a book. i said that it is his pride talking and that it was his pride that led him to all this destruction; and some humility helps sometime; he is not that unique and other people went the journey he is on now.
the way i talked i think got him to some realization that i am beyond the set point. no means no.
This was a strong woman who knew what she wanted, and knew that she wouldn't dare try to get it at the expense of her dignity.
Sometimes things have to be lost to be appreciated.
Really now, what other choice do you have?
Let the bumbling idiot go to his other woman. Just make it clear to him that he can have THAT life or THIS life. There is no straddling the fence allowed.
I love your words above. They resonate with strength and confidence, just the perfect balance of reason, anger, and truth. That is a good place for you to be in.
Get back there.
The madness continues. If you've been around here for any amount of time, you'll realize that this is not out of the ordinary at all.
Sorry for the pain all the same.
Blessings,
Bill
