And I think I would have told her... "That's alright darling. Because I can see it. And I'll keep seeing it for the both of us as long as I have to."
Now, back to your posts. Sorry for the interuption.

Time is on your side. If you can keep hanging in there, I think it will work out. If all was bad for 20 yrs, why should 1 year fix it? You could look at it as, she doesn't appear to be going anywhere, you last year has been the best in 20, seems like an upward trend to me. No matter how anyone tries to look at this in a beer half empty sort of way, it appears you are headed in the right direction.
Be careful with the sarcasm. I am king of sarcasm but sometimes things go over her head, or she doesn't get it and then I just seem mean. I suspect you might the same issue.
That conversation..which I will get back to...really gave me the "beer half full" feeling for some reason this time.
Maybe it was her saying she was comfortable, we had become best friends, etc... and saw no reason to just boot me out the door.
I have lived the past year under the assumption that she is healing, letting the past go and becoming my friend again. Maybe not falling in love with me..I know that I can't count on that..but it seems that what she said that night, in some ways, confirms that.
There have been times over the months when she has said things were not terrible..that we were still friends through the years..but it really surprised me to hear her say that we have become best friends this past year.
In the end, I still am very confused as to where she thinks this is all going...and that was the gist of the rest of the talk...about us being part of each other's lives.
