Hey - two questions have been floating in my head regarding your situation (again - I pretty much read every word). You surely don't have to answer if you don't care to.
1.) You stated later in your situation that you had begun dating someone else. How was that for you? How did it make you feel about yourself and your situation? How did your W take it (I recall she was happy for you initially, but did that change?).
2.) There was a pretty long period of time when you dropped off the boards for a bit. It would appear a lot of things were going on at that point. How were you spending that time? Did you interact much with your w then? What was the R like?
