I wonder if she is looking to have your D come and live with her to relieve some of her guilt and depression. She might have felt that once she was D'ed she would feel better but she doesn't so now she is looking for the next fix to her problems. Ofcourse this won't help either. Nothing will until she looks at herself. My W has been doing this since day one. "It will all be better when...."

It is also possible that your D will reject her in one of 2 ways. She might refuse to live with her or she might go for a while and them want to come home. You have been the rock for your D since this happened, she might not give that up too easily. Also, as much as siblings fight with each other, it is my experience that they miss each other when separated.

whatever the reasons or the outcome, I still think this is a step in the right direction for you W.





Just catching up on friends MMF

Ima has what I believe to be an excellent point here.

From personal experience..........

My GF has a D 15.

D 15 was extremely upset when my GF left her H. D 15 grades began to tumble but came around again after 6 months or so. To this day her grades ride an up and down wave.

Now on to the nuts and bolts..............

My GF misses her D as though she has died, her D is still very aloof to her mother and will visit infrequently rarely staying overnight. My GF has told me many, many times that she needs her D and would give anything to have her come and live with her. I see how bright my GF is shortly after a visit from her D.......and how low she gets hours after.

My GF thinks that this will all be better when.........

Just like IMA says.

My XW has shown a ton of interest in the kids in the last few months, I know the kids need it and I believe my XW needs it too. I do not believe the increased contact with the kids will do much in the way of her looking into herself so I take it for what it's worth......

It's good for my kids.
