So, did you tell her NC with OM was what you needed? I hope so. The friend request has to go to trash. Of course, say it nicely.
When she says she needs space, does that mean at an intimate level?
60% committed is not committed. That's what the MC told my H when he said he was 80% committed. But I get what they want to convey--basically, they're not sure they want to be in the M but they're not completely out of it.
I see how she carries a lot of emotional baggage from the past. It's good she's going to the IC.
I think you did very well, especially listening and validating, but hope you talked about the boundaries with the OM.
