WAW - Very confused and devastated - pt 8

[confusedinpa]

I wound up sending her a text later that evening as she had given me the summer clothes for the boys. I asked if they needed to be washed first.

She called me back right away and told me that she had washed it all already because she thought I might not have the chance to wash them before the boys would need them. I thanked her and was about to say good nite when she started to chat again.

I let her go for a couple of minutes and then told her that it was getting late so I had to get to bed.

I really need help with the Dark/Dim. I don't want to be used as a crutch to help her along until she finds someone else. I don't want to come off as a cold jerk either.

So when she starts talking about how busy her week was or something like that, how can I respond? I've tried a couple of oh's and ok's and then I have to get going as I'm in the middle of something but that been coming accross wrong.

We're suppose to go to the game together next Weds again and that Friday my oldest is throwing out the first pitch at a minor league game so she wants us to go together again. How should I treat her? I was originally just being dark/dim the first 4 weeks and then afterwards see how it goes from there.

So confused.....
