Her doctor's appointment went great but took a while, and she decided to stay another night. I helped her fill her prescriptions. We went out to dinner at our favorite place, and were having a great time.
Then the conversation turned serious, she asked some questions about my parents and made some comments. I took the chance to say pretty much what I wrote a few posts above.
She responded "well, I'm moving ahead with the divorce, I filed two weeks ago". Boom. We left and picked up her prescriptions and talked for a while. She said in a nutshell that she's not willing to work on things. It hurts too much. Brought up a lot of things from the past, and that I'm still not stable financially or taking care of myself.
I'm floored. This doesn't make any sense. I can tell she's second-guessing it already, or she wouldn't even be here. She's been making comments the whole visit about how much she missed Dallas, and I can see the good memories coming back. I'll write it all out later.
I decided to Act As If the rest of the evening, which was hard but good. We watched the pilot for a new show Body of Proof, and an episode of Shark Tank. Love it that Mark Cuban's on there. She said it was nice to relax and watch the shows. We talked lightly a little more, then went to bed. I haven't slept well, getting some work done now. She'll leave around noon today.
And then what? Am I cool with these visits now that she's decided? I have no idea yet.
