You are right, though. If I didn't know the DB techniques, I would have messed up even more. I noticed that W started texting OW in the middle of our convo.... and that was just, well, ridiculous. At one point she asked me if I wanted to call OW.... Of course I said -- NO, I don't even acknowledge her existence. WHy on earth would I lower myself to talk to her? (actually, i just said -- NO, but you know what I mean??)
Well that it ridiculous... and very immature.
I'll leave it up to others more wise but I think you might want to consider setting a boundary.
"W.. I cannot stop you from texting OW, however I will not tolerate you texting whist we are having a conversation."
I don't know if that would be a 180 or not.. but I feel like there is a difference between walking away from a situation to protect yourself and being a doormat.
Idk.. maybe I'm channeling starsky right now.
