So do you think that she's seemingly depressed and distant (emotionally empty) because the OM isn't a presence any more? In this case, she still says she wants out.
Any thoughts? Coach? Anyone else?
Yes, I think that she's in withdrawal- or cannot go through withdrawal because she still sees OM. It's a bad idea for them to have contact. Because every time she sees him it's just like ripping the bandaid all over again- or taking another hit of the crack pipe.
I can relate with the "empty" feeling. I had that too. What I didn't realize is that my "hole" is a God sized hole that only He can fill- not anything else. Not my home, not my job, not my children- but that's just for me personally.
