It's Time To Rock; Part II

[♪CS♪]

Thank you 9 and gr8 for your replies.

I need to find a way to pick myself back up. I thought I was doing well, most days I was able to stay really positive. The phone call from my brother earlier this week about his new girl really set me back. I NEED to get over it.

I guess it sounds like I did some things well today and definitely made mistakes as well. I guess I cannot expect perfection from myself, but I know I do set my standards high, and I do not expect myself to make the mistakes that I did.

I am at bit of a crossroads in this journey. My commitment is starting to slip some.

Why do all LBSs think the ball is in the the WAW court?
Not true, just like you only brought 50% of the problems to the M the WAW is only 50% of this situation too.
YOU can decide too, what's best for you?

I see what you’re saying, but it is hard not to think she has more control than I do right now. What is best for me? I still think saving my M is best for me. So I have made my choice, and I am trying to do the best I can with regard to that choice. But, in order for that to ever happen, she needs to make a difference choice than she is right now. I guess that is why I feel “the ball is in her court.”

Ok, so from this convo it is clear she want action taken regarding the house.
What do you want?
How much effort on your part needs to be put into selling the house?
I would let her do the work in regards to the house.

I agree and that is what I have been doing, and I will continue to do. She does need to take responsibility for this.

Great job keeping your composure. She will/has taken noticed your strength to handle difficult situations.
Women want to feel safe. Showing her strength was a good sign.

Yes, pull back, let her handle the effects of her own decisions.

Thanks. This is where it is hard not to want to just shake them. Yell “what are you thinking!!!????” But I know what I need to do, now it is just a matter of executing. I was there before, just need to find my way back.
