Regretful and not sure how to proceed

Thanks -- and 'intellectually' i know you are right 25. (do u ever use a first name or something I can call u? I feel like u are a friend, and...well, if you have something I can call u, let me know. No problem if not)

W says OW is SOOOOOOO emotionally healthy, far ahead of her, etc....
W believes she herself is SOOOOOOO far ahead of me that she's had to 'lead me' emotionally. (true in that case- my family is very intellectual/educated - little emotional connections)

I like the 'alien spew'. That made me smile. When I read it again and thought about it, you're right. She's speaking in absolute negatives and trying to justify this BS she's pulling and putting OW on a pedestal. BTW OW is in a job that requires some higher education, but not publishing/writing/research type work I also do.

OW is def. not an intellectual. One thing W says is that she and OW don't have to discuss 'lofty' things all the time. (she says I spend too much time thinking, discussing world events, politics, philosophy, literature, sociological trends, etc....etc......) Personally I think it makes me dam*ed well- rounded and interesting!! I am interested in the world and love to hear others' ideas. In my career I LIVE to learn -- I teach, I write, I learn, I live. I guess I've always thought that was an attractive thing. Go figure huh?

Gotta go to work right now, but want to address some more things later regarding my IC appointment yesterday. Interesting.
