Thanks JacT. No- we'll never fully know. And these blokes sure are good at compartmentalising. I am waiting for the break...but the break doesn't mean they come back frown

I realise I am still going all over the place.

I agreed to see him, I communicate, act all cool, (even though I keep up the protest and certain boundaries)

Then in the next breath, I'm telling him to HIKE IT cos he's a danger to my health?

That's contradictory right?

Cos I see my detached-ness has NO effect on him whatsoever.

The problem is my expectations...
I realise I am not detached...
I am acting from EMOTION....
I have stopped DBing for me, i'm doing it for him.
