Swimming upstream...PH #7

[MrNiceGuy]

Since during the school week, my W and I trade our son at school and not face-to-face, I usually don't see W during the week until we trade off on Saturday. Since I'm GALing, I am trying to be more DIM, not responding to her e-mails until the next day -- usually I would have responded within the hour.

Occasionally, if we get to talking about current life, I'll state I'm simply busy working on me. Sometimes, WAW asks 'like what?' to probably assess what I am working on for myself. Normally, I would broadly state that I'm doing a lot of research, reading, and talking with others to improve myself, making new friends, and exercising regularly. I'm getting to the point, however, where I feel like responding "That's for me to know, isn't it?" or "I'm recognizing opportunities that are for me, so you don't need to concern yourself."

According to my DB coach, I'm still in Stage 1, reducing negative emotions, but a) we're cordial to each other, and b) she's probably more interested in waiting for OM to leave his W than anything I'm doing. She appears to be only interested in how my time with my S6 is affecting my S6's attitude and behavior.

Question: If she is going to continue lusting after her new BF, then how do I hint that I am making positive changes without giving her the information that she has no right to know about while in an active EA?

(I know, no 'egg shells', but still want to have a positive impact.)
