And now just days later the rollercoaster heads downhill again.
Last night D19 was talking to me about her vacation plans and mentioned that STBX said she can't go away in May. Later I texted STBX about another issue and mentioned what D19 said. STBX confirmed that she can't get time off work. To me that also means she is no longer considering the new job. Otherwise, she wouldn't know she can't take time off next month.
So....either she has decided not to go away together and doesn't want to tell me the truth or is staying at the job after all. Either way, not good for any possible progress.
It upset me a little, but after all this time, I have learned to expect very little from her other than the unexpected.
