I am the only one who can help her. the hard part is she won't ask outright. I have started listing little things that have been said and implied. she is one lost soul. Dream had to do with us driving away from her friend and the OM turning and heading a different direction. I am driving her away from everything.
The word I am getting in my head is this, "let her "find" you. Stop hiding. I don't know how to do this, but apparently that is my word.
My MIL is really unhappy about all of this and more so now. I think me and her are even closer now than before and she was already one of my best friends. She has asked me to wait it out, please wait it out, she will be back she can't live like this much longer.
I think eventually it may come down to a battle of wills. Mine will win out. because my corner is stacked.
The partying lifestyle is getting old, she has to feel it, becasue she looks it. My d29 called and said you can seeher jowels. basically she has lost weight and her cheeks are sagging. She laughs and giggle sall happy and has comments about this and that, some sexual about this and that. she looked like an ass and sounded worse.
I do not talk to her, I answer questions quickly and now I feel I need to be more robust when talking to her.
