Thanks, that makes sense.
I guess I just find it hard to 'validate when appropriate' when there is no or little contact with my W.
I don't expect to hear from her again now for a while.

I replied to her email today about us moving on and just said
"Ok. Have a nice day :)"
I will leave it at that for now. She's done.
