I am having a real hard time figuring out how to be supportive of my w and the rough time she is going through, while at the same time maintaining my boundaries and detachment.
My instictual desire is to bring her some flowers and hug her and tell her that I understand what she is going through with her mom. I want to tell her that I'm there for her, and go home from work early to take over the kids so she can have some time to herself.
But that doesn't match with our M sitch - she doesn't want me, doesn't want to be M'd, I don't want to be m'd under these circumstances, etc. I'm already d'd, etc..
so I am left being confused.
What would you do for a friend or a close colleague in similar circumstances?
