Master, that is a good one, I am no master, maybe a jedi in training but not a master.

Listen to Puppy, you cannot believe anything, she is trying to look for signs from you to justify her decisions, you have to act "as if" towards her, it is hard I know, because your natural instinct is to pursue her, find out what is going on, asking her why she is doing the things she is doing to make sense of it. Let me tell you, they will make very little sense.

My best advice to you, is start doing things that do not include her, maybe you and your D can go to a park and laugh it up and have fun! Real fun! Get a baby sitter and go out with the guys one night, have some fun . This will get her thinking of what she is missing, and will stop her total inward thinking of the justifications of her actions. If you are telling us the whole story, it looks as if she is already looking for signs to come back, but she is scared it will turn out the way things were in the past.

Stay the course, it is the straightest path to where you want to go.
