Rough night last night. Still trying to come to the realisation that this is over (in her mind), or at least over for now (in my mind). But I think she has gone past the point of no return.
I haven't slept properly in weeks, so tonight I'm going to learn meditation to relax me - very new for me as I am usually so sceptical about all that sort of stuff! Will probably take all my power not to laugh in the class when they start teaching!

I'm still not sure of what to do with all my W's stuff in our house. I feel like she is using me for 'free storage', given she is not paying the mortgage. I don't know if I tell her to come get everything and cause her some problems, as she has got her whole life here and nowhere to store it, or I continue being the trampled on nice guy letting her take the easy route. I imagine it will be very emotional for both of us when she does clear everything.
This whole process for her has been so easy - she doesn't pay rent where she lives, she has all her stuff at our home - she is not living in reality as a single person who has responsibilities.
Do I get firm, or just leave it and continue my disappearance into 'darkness'???
