WAW Won't Communicate At All

[cotoffgard]

"I feel like she is being misguided."

Man, that is EXACTLY the way I felt about my WAW, especially since I had no way of presenting MY side of the story to her friends and family.

But I've since been doing my best to drop the damn rope. You have to realize that she's being "misguided" only because she's presenting her perspective of the sitch, and I'd bet big bux that story isn't quite fair and balanced. So as her "rescuers and protectors", their initial response to such a "beast" is to go toe-to-toe, bareknuckle, and diiiirrrty.

In other words, don't be angry at her father or any of ther family. They're only doing what your W wants them to do. One day, the fire raging inside of her will die down, and she'll be forced to sift through the ashes. Your job is to try your best to survive the fire unscathed. Who knows? She might see enough of a foundation in the "new" you to rebuild from the ashes her house of love.

Time...it hurts, but it heals...
