I think I am undergoing a change in perspective, and I am not sure if it is good or bad.

W got in touch via brief email for the first time in 5 days. I am on a work trip, and in the past we always touch base every day or so. Not a word for 5 days, then a brief email, almost as if done by guilt or she thought she had to. I responded a day later with an upbeat email giving her an update.

This week has been brutal, as W is apparently just cutting me out of her life. I think I need to detach and accept the fact that our M is over. Part of me thinks she is in a fantasy world, part of me thinks she is a WAW who has firmly shut the door and will never look back.

Totally uncertain how to proceed.
