Okay. Update time. It has been three and half weeks since our last contact (initiated by me) when I told my W I agreed with her decision to leave, told her I had her belongings boxed up, and that I put them in the garage.

There has been zero contact from either of us. It is like we have both walked away, which really isn't too far from the truth. I still have very brief moments of anxiety that usually pass quickly. My gut is telling me that she is not going to pursue me and that she is just done.

I am detaching very well. I believe if I had to interact with her now, I could do excellent without backsliding. I'm having a lot more trouble dealing with the loss of her family, since I was very much a part of their family. It is a lot like losing my entire family. That bothers me terribly.

Tomorrow is her birthday and I have some non-pressing financial information I would like to discus with her. Maybe some advice on handling this would be appreciated.
