There are, it was a long weekend in both Canada and the US, and I hoping the lack of response was from people busy with a GAL type weekend.
I myself was gone from the 1st until today.
MLC almost always (I shy away from always and never, great words that set you up to eat your foot) tend to have roots in te childhood, some sort of trauma the MLC couldn't nor should be able to deal with as a child, that resurfaces years later when a trigger is hit.
Pressing issues with a WAS or a MLC WAS is seldom a good idea. It hits 'flight or flight' Neither reaction is generally what the LBS wants.
We (LBS) also have this fantasy idea that somewhere if we keep digging enough the 'truth' will come out and that 'truth' is they really really really want to be with us.
When the real 'truth' is, they don't know.
MLC = confusion, and believe it or not, confusion is your ally. It beats the WAS or MLC KNOWING 1005 they do not want you in their life.
