I agree. I am in the same house with my WAW. It is difficult to detach, and I'm struggling now to drop the rope. Based on her behavior (and books she is reading) it seeme W has dropped the rope, probably quite a while ago.
Tough to be in the house with W and act like everything is ok (she is) while, at the same time, you know things are anything BUT ok. Just trying to hang in there.
