Thanks Yas! You've been at this game too long to be getting down on yourself, keep your chin up!
So I didn't pick up anything from her house last night because I wasn't mentally ready. Think I have had a significant breakthrough though, and see that the nonresponsive/delayed response tactic actually works! It totally threw her for a loop yesterday when I was not responding to her texts and phone calls, she was blowing my phone up. I had a Dr's appt and they took offense to my blood pressure rise over the past year that I am sure is directly linked to my sitch. When I told her I had been at the hospital she got all concerned and has been blowing my phone up today. Just playing it cool for the time being, in the near future I will be renting a truck one Saturday to retrieve all my items from her house.
The interactions yesterday seemed like a game but they shouldn't be. But it is a game in a sense as my behaviors are not what I want to do, they are to coerce her into a certain behavior. Trying not to overthink or mindread I am very bad with that...
GAL long weekend this weekend, very much looking forward to it. Good luck and God Bless to you all!
