Funny how little things keep popping into memory. I did ask her several weeks after the S in May why she did not end it sooner. She said with a bit of a cry and sadness, “Because I still had hope.” ( Does this sound genuine if she still had OM?) She said she was firm in her decision now and she treid. I then said it did not seem like you were trying and doing the right things as the direction we were given. She maintained that she was trying in ‘her way’. So maybe you are right, perhaps she was doing only what she was capable of at the time. MC was terrible. It was all re-hashing and blaming sessions. No-solutions. … at least none that W would listen to. I still don’t know if I should have backed off about the A, or if she really did owe me answers and openness. I think the only way trust could be restored is through openness. Could she really not have cared so much that stubbornness and pride ruined a chance to fix our issues? She also in her begging and crying was “Please don’t let my mistake be the reason for our M ending!”. Indirectly, I suppose it has. This seems so wrong. I don’t know how else to describe it as it seems so wrong.
