Back a couple or three months ago, the two "little" guys weren't doing their work to W's satisfaction. She said, "I have a job now, I can leave."

I think I've about decided that I don't want to live that way. I guess it could be possible, but not only can she not be happy, she has to pull me down, too. And that won't work anymore.

You cannot change your w, you cannot make her happy or make her even want to be happy, only she can do that.

So, keep GAL, keep taking care of you, keep moving forward with your notes and all, but remember she has to work on her. And she seems to want to wallow in self pity.

I think you have pretty much summarized things, in a nutshell!
