What does her seeing the dogs hurt?

That you have to see her? And it pains you to see her?
If you work things out with her you're going to see her on a daily basis.

Your boundary...

Did you ACTUALLY tell her about your boundary? Cause its not a boundary if she has to read your mind.

For example, "If he is in your life I won't be."

The still meant that I HAD to talk to her about the boys and bills. But life stuff? Not even close.

She wants to see the dogs, why not? Not doing the mind reading thing, it could be for the dogs it could be for you.
IF you decide to let her and are around, don't wear your broken shattered heart on your sleeve.

Be upbeat, don't look longing at her, don't say, "They miss you like I miss you."

Remember your man-books you read.
