Kat, I'm feeling pretty strongly in that direction. I appreciate your comments as always.
SC, I appreciate your comments, but it's not "just a glass". It's a constant reminder of OM and their (and I use this word grudgingly) relationship. If it was "just a glass" then she would have got rid of it a long time ago when I shared with her how it made me feel.
I just see more good than bad coming out of me thanking her for getting rid of it. To acknowledge she did something taking my feelings into account when it comes to the A is a big deal. I just see it as a way to acknowledge that she did something for ME in all this and so far, this is probably the first tangible thing I can say she's done concerning the A that I wanted. To not let her know I appreciate it I think is a missed step in us being thoughtful to each other. If I thank her, she may be encouraged to do more, but if I don't, she may think "F it, he didn't even care to acknowledge my sacrifice, I'm not doing anything else he wants".
Yes, I'm sure she feels guilt everytime I bring it up. But now that she's gotten rid of it, this would be the last time I'd bring it up and it would be a GOOD comment, not a bad one.
