Hi L, I am so glad that I spoke to you. Your insight help well-being tremendously.
Update:It's Friday. One week and three days to go?
1.) M called the other day. Going Dark works on her. (big deal) She asked about my Mom, and she talked about 'the other friend'. She told me that they got into a fight. I never brought up A. She does. She pulled another 'stab and twist' game. I 'acted as if' it didn't bother me. I hate it. I want to tell her to shut up. Should I ask her not to talk about A? I try to change the subject and ignore her. She told me A isn't talking to 'the other friend' either.
2.) A hasn't called. I worry. I am already disappointed. I feel better, but I'd hate to think that he is mad at me or pushing me away again. It makes me want to tell M, 'hey what's up with A? He hasn't called me'. I don't want to do that. right?
Plan: if he doesn't call, I can call him with a friendly 'Hi' to touch base. I would feel so much better if he calls.
Current Progress:feeling more in control, enjoying & concentrating on work more, sleeping better, getting organized, less obsessive about A, less anxious . . . still 'what if-ing'.
