Talked with W briefly on Friday, after getting advice some several people. The concern is that W needs to know she's more important to me than these other relationships. I told her that, then she said "I need to go".
Then she sent a text "Do what you need to do. If there's something important to discuss, I would still prefer to email".
I responded "Sounds good. Have a good weekend."
So, here we go, the pull-back. One of the guys here at church talked about how her whole life has been keeping up an appearance of everything being OK. Counselors call it the "fig leaf". When she lets me in a little bit, she'll get scared and realizes her fig leaf is showing, so she'll push me away and retreat back. Then she'll start feeling lonely and realize her life isn't working out, and let me back in, only to repeat the cycle. Helps me to remember that.
