Despite that, W still isn't sure of what she wants - or maybe she is too afraid to actually leave. She still thinks that I should be the one to move out of the house. I've made it clear that I won't be leaving. For the time being we have agreed that we will continue to live essentially as roommates.
Well, that's ONE step forward, agreeing to live together as roommates.
Small step, but at least one..and you're right, she's afraid to actually leave, but you don't need to, either.
So, you both are at a stalemate for now...keep us posted.
Remember, as each person is different, every MLC/Transition is different..what works for one may not work for another. Most of the time it is trial and error for ALL involved.
