he did say she felt under alot of pressure from the relationship and the family and that had a great deal to do with her making the decision to D. She explained this is what she meant by the metaphor about being at the bottom of the ocean. A couple of the women on the other forum made mention about feeling too much pressure and having to get away from it as being part of peri. If that is so then that feeling might be temporary for her and things may actually get better between us after the D. At least she still wants me in her life and doesn't give off any vibes of being interested in an OM at this point. I had wanted the Separation Agreement, and given the timing of her actually moving to the new house this weekend I am wondering if she's wanting to leave the door open.
How powerful does something have to be to make a woman leaver her husband, her home and her children? No man is worth that. How much must she have suffered before making this decision? Is she crazy or is she a WAW? Maybe she really has been trying to make herself happy again and this was the next step to do it. That is MLC, right? Maybe she will realize this won't work either in the long run and she will either take it further or come back to her family. Other than letting myself engage in the relationship talk, I think I did everything humanly possible to communicate caring and respect to her tonight. If only I had some way of knowing she were reachable. She really did not seem to be in any fog tonight. Earlier today I was really challenged about standing, even though my assistant told me she felt that was the right thing to do and said she would do the same thing (that was HUGE because I really value her opinion!!). Now, I am reminded yet again how much I love her.
