Man, I don't know how you pulled off waiting this long for everything.
Not waiting, Time...Detatching and working on MYSELF. Detatchment is an art well worth cultivating...in using the time to work on myself, I can definitely say that I have become a much better person. And I move forward...not move on....just forward.

Exactly.
That's all you can do. It has taken me a good deal of reflection (and education) on what SHE is going through for me to be able to have developed the compassion for her that has helped me go through all of this. She is trying to find her way. Maybe she finds her way back to me...maybe she doesn't. All I can do is continue to move forward.

She balked at that and started crying. She didn't leave much to my suprise.
Sounds like the dose of reality you gave her made her wake up a little at the very least. Stay in touch.
