Well, through the night, she continued to send me texts and I'm not really sure what to make of some of them. In talking about our dog that's sick, she said "I'm just glad you can take care of them. it tears me up inside that i can't. i hate it. i freaking hate it."
She went on to say that she left them with me because I needed them so much and she didn't want to be selfish so now she "just has to deal with it"
Later she talked about how it's so hard for her to see them b/c it makes her cry and hurts her too much.
I just responded that they love to see her and it was up to her but I could understand why it hurts her to see them. I guess I got that from the DB book or maybe from here about just acknowledging her feelings.
I wanted to say well come home then if you miss them so much, etc etc but of course I didn't. It's so hard to bite your tongue sometimes I guess. Anyway, I don't really get why it's so hard to see them. Does it remind her of us? or is it just that she is sad she can't have them with her? Kinda weird for someone who has only seen them once over the last 6 weeks, and who, before that, rarely saw them at all. Oh well. If she wants to, she knows where I'm at and I'll let her see them if she wants.
