Thanks, Kalni, I agree. My email was five hours ago, No response. I don't know what I want at this stage. I look at what she said today. I look at how great it was (or so I thought) right up until bomb day. I look at her abusive father (who she never reconciled with and had no contact with for almost 30 years) dying 5 months before the Bomb and seeing connections there. Then I look at her accusing me of several vile, simply false things this past year. I look at her somehow -somehow - turning my beloved StepD and StepS against me just recently. I look at so many other things and: It may just be too late, too much water over the dam, no going back now. Next move - if any - is hers. But somehow, I doubt there'll be one. If anything, I expect the usual backlash after this instance of honesty, of opening up. We'll see. And by the way, re: Do I still love her? I love the person she used to be.
