I won't apologize for exposing her affair to our families. I would do that again -- I was doing everything I could to try to save my family at that point.
As for her needing this to be about her, I do see where that's true, and I try to be empathetic about that, but I think I run out of empathy because it's ALWAYS been about her. Every conversation, everything -- like I've said, she's very narcissistic. That Toby Keith song "I Wanna Talk About Me" -- I mean, that's US! Had she been working harder (oh hell, working at ALL) to try to mend my wound over her affair these past two years, and now was crying out for some counseling, I could be SOOOOO sympathetic, I really could. Remember, despite my hardass demeanor on this forum, I am, by nature, a MNG and a classic Pleaser.
I do see where I probably missed the boat on the IM convo. I'm just feeling way too damned angry right now for getting sucked back in once again, only to have her distance herself from me almost IMMEDIATELY.
