Sweetie, you are a wonderful, insightful, generous man. And being such, you were compassionate to your xw. And that's ok.
It is good that you are thinking about what she said, but, dont let it get into your head and start messin' around in there too much.
If you are open to a friendship with her, start slowly, but, use the skills that you have learned in db and do what is best for you.
She is the mother of your children and a better relationship on your terms is always a good thing for them.
Take it slowly. I know you know that this could be a peek out, feeling the vibe kind of a thing for her.
Thank you B...
This is the tough part. I need to keep showing these changes are for me. I still need to improve in fact.
Most importantly if/when I begin this new friendship I guess you could call it. I need to do it in an unselfish way. I can't look at it as anything more than what it is.
I need to let her come to me. She still has a long way to go. I need to find a balance within this new territory. Some would argue that she owes me. In a sense maybe...but if I go into this with that kind of attitude I will fail.
