Mach, you're right on the boundaries. I need to revisit that.
Regret, I appreciate your insight as well.
I think it's probably time to check in with my DB coach again too. I'm feeling a little lost in terms of what I should be doing here.
Journal:
We had a decent discussion this morning about it all, and agreed to talk more later. She told me the reason she got so upset was because I showed her who I used to be and it just reinforced her belief that people are who they are.
She said quite a few things that made sense, and I agreed with. Other things were a little more cryptic like she's never going to be able to truly be herself unless we are divorced and she feels that my "not controlling her" was a way to control her and even "someone else will make me more happy long term."
