Early Parole from the MLC Chain Gang?????

[MHL]

Reflections from yesterday after my W and D13 talked and were in each other's presence for the first time in 6 months. For those that are not familiar with my sitch, my D13 pretty much knows everything my W has done, multiple affairs, lying and all the other selfish crap that goes along with MLC.

I am hoping for more of a connection between D13 and my W on Tuesday when they all go see a movie together. I am letting go of the situation now, I have nudged it along to this point, now it is up to my W and my D to mend the relationship.

I am working on keeping my expectations down low or none at all but it is hard not to think about the possibilities. I am trying to focus on me and stay on my path and not get distracted by all this. I am also preparing myself for more steps backwards so that when they come I wont't sink to some new low.

I know I am getting better at not getting sucked into her MLC vortex, I attribute this to my understanding of MLC. While no amount of knowledge will prevent what is going on it has given me a framework to understand what my W is going through. I do have compassion for her and I do love her still.

I am wrestling with some financial issues that concern her and I want to continue to make the road back for her an easy one to travel. I think that I am going to wait another month and see if things progress any further before I talk to her about any of the financial issues.

More Time and more Patience is what I keep saying to myself as I know there is still many challenges ahead.
