You did fine. You can't keep your feelings inside forever, this needed to happen. Like you said, now your know where you both stand. Probably should've had it out earlier, and it wouldn't have been so dramatic.
It may be a good time to pull back / go dim for a bit and see what she does. She's not coming back into the M until OM is out of the picture anyways, and a break from the situation will do you good.
I don't think I could have dealt with it earlier. Even now, hearing her saying she was in love with OM hurt an awful lot although I was expecting it. I think this was when it had to happen FY.
Yeah, for now, until I can focus more I'll stick with my plan of action which basically leaves the ball in her court for any contact whatsoever, unless logistic or D8 related.
I had to contact her this morning re: my Visa renewal this week and in my text I added that I appreciated our convo of last night and I thanked her for her honesty. She replied that she also appreciated the convo.
Now I'll see if she'll initiate the friendship she talked about or not and I'll play it by ear from that point on.
I'm still hoping to get more feedback from out excellent team of vets and I can then adapt my plan accordingly.
Thanks FY.
