Not by moving out. She needs room to breathe. Listen to what she says and take HER advice. She is telling you what she needs right now. Do you not believe her?


She doesn't feel like she has space in the house. What I've done to give her space hasn't changed how she feels about being suffocated.

Can I stay and force her to leave? Sure. It'll take a month of real pressure, pressure that can do just as much damage as me leaving. Will that really make a difference in how she feels about being suffocated?

She's not feeling like I'm abandoning her, but smothering her.
