I agree with beginner.. it must be a relief at least to be out of limbo land, or on the platform and the train is approaching to take you out of limboland hey! And sounds like, amongst the sadness and saying goodbye to your M, you can glimpse a future for yourself, out there somewhere. Its really heartening to read.
I thought of you, lying in bed last night.. hehehe.. I was reading Passionate Marriage, its SUCH a good book isnt it?? I can feel it seeping into me.. its already really affected how I deal with some family members, that its ok to not agree with them, but I dont have to take it personally, I can just be me and let them be them.. cant explain, but I've noticed ! Thanks to T for reccomending it to us. I will have to read it twice though!
As for rushing.. I think if you're M has been 'over' for so long, theres no reason to hang back, when the time comes! A whole new world awaits you. It is so sad that your W cant at least meet you half way though, and do some work on herself or on talking to you about whats REALLY going on (not housework hey)
