I'll store that stuff. I just needed to hear it. She can have her wedding dress back, though. I certainly don't need it, unless I wanted to put it on and feel pretty, but I'm not into that. And you are right. I’ll hold onto anything we shared that I might want, and she can ask for it. Consider it payment for helping her move.

THE PLAN is coming together... nicely. I'm impressed by your composure.
Just like Hannibal from the A-Team. "I love it when a plan comes together."
Thanks for the compliment. It is easy for me to be composed when I have a plan. Plus, I am used to doing everything anyway and she was gone a lot, so the transition hasn't been horrible. It helps to realize the person I see and talk to isn't the person who was my W. It really helps to come here to vent and get positive reinforcement.
The C is onboard with the plan. We talked about the A. C is in complete agreement about the things that need to happen to move forward with MC. W is still going to IC, but no MC sessions planned. I summed up a lot of what has been discussed in my thread this past week. I guess I didn't tell her about the ring, and she seemed pretty concerned about that, so I guess it isn't just me. I don’t need the C to like me or try and win her to my side, but we need to discuss this stuff, if the W and I ever get to piecing. The C doesn’t discuss what we say in IC to each other, but she did say the A hasn’t come up in the W sessions. I said it must hard to get info from one S and then, because of confidentiality, not to be able to ask directly about it in the other IC session. We also discussed D issue options and expectations.
The C thinks I’m in a good place right now and sees no need to see me weekly, unless I want to come in. She thinks I have a handle on my self improvement plan, and I already have a life.
