So we are where we are. I won't come down on you for your message to her- but as you know, it wasn't necessary to send.

You prob get the same feeling I do, once it's sent, the light bulb goes off, then we say Oh well it's what I wanted to say...

Maybe I'm mind reading, but that's how it goes for me.

How did her response make you feel?


Maynard, it's something like that.

And as far as how it made me feel. I guess the biggest thing was relief...that she didnt come back at me with a bunch of anger or repeat the "we're done" speech.

the secondary emotion I think I'm feeling is contentment...that I'm able to give her some things she's been wanting for a while now...empathy and acceptance.

the tertiary emotion I'm feeling is fear. I'm afraid...because I've kind of resolved to "let the cards fall where they may" so to speak instead of trying to place the cards where I want them. It's very frightening to not only have no control over the situation but to admit you have no control over it.
