hope you love her, cause you're stuck with her now

I guess proof positive that insight leads to insight, but not necessarily change.

I definitely hope that the EMDR helps too. Time shall tell.

The problem with puppy is there are times I can't keep her. This is why I never would have gotten a dog as a single mom. Drill weekends are sometimes manageable, but often I need someone to watch her. The pet sitter would end up costing me $90 for the weekend, and a kennel would run me closer to $150. But for those dates, I normally give him a ton of advance notice. Months usually since those dates don't change. That's worked fine so far.

He kept her last night and has her today. I haven't talked to him yet today, so no clue if he'll ask me to go check on her at lunch, but I'm sure he walked her this am, so she'll be fine.

When I got home last night, I had a package. It was the wool knit sweater I had ordered with the gift card he got me for Christmas. I sent him a text saying thank you to be polite, he texted me back saying you are very welcome. Haven't talked to him other than that.

Yeah, definitely feels a lot like a D. In some ways worse because he didn't cheat on me, so I am not as angry/hurt and I still see glimpses of the guy I was with for so long.
