Yeah, I do feel like my fear of doing something that makes her up and leave has subsided a lot. I finally started to understand that all I have been doing is enabling her and giving her more reasons to A. find the OM more attractive than me and B. not do anything to change the situation. I think that because the root of our problems are from the fact that I wasn't assertive for so long, that she's just expecting me to talk big and back down or not follow through.
