Well, as far as emotion in the texts with W, there weren't any. I wasn't angry or sappy.
But I was "interacting" in her conversation. I need to acknowledge her conversation but not encourage it. Again, likely come off as "more of the same" so that bothers me.
I believe I have to let her know (when she starts one) that I really will not involve myself in her personal friendly exchanges while she is sleeping with someone else.
She either/or is looking for "guilt-relief; keeping it light for fear I'll crush her in the D; or looking for evidence I am "open" to her now that she may see some respectability; testing the waters as the A may be failing"
Regardless, she needs to know that I demand and deserve respect. Keeping the A is unacceptable. I'm out until then.
She has 2 R's. Pick one. This one is unavailable until that time.
