I’ve been thinking about my sitch all day now. The hardest part is to decide whether to leave or have her leave. Logic tells me that the unhappy one should leave. It also hurts even more to think that I would have to give up everything in my life and leave it to someone who does not deserve it.

At the same time maybe leaving behind a vacuum would not be the worst thing.

Since my decision is due within a month and it falls on a date shortly after W returns from her vacation I have been thinking about writing a letter and bringing it with me when I go swapping the dogs in the middle of her vacation week. I won’t give it to her until I leave. She needs to read it alone and in peace.

The message in the letter needs to be straight forward. That I have come to a conclusion to leave because I don’t want this R any more either. I don’t need you to go on with my life. However I would want to have you along as I move on.

Any thoughts on this approach? Or is this too early. Mind you that I have not pushed any issue for many months now.
