Thanks Tallula. Your post probably saved me from backsliding tonight. It seems that we are finally at a point where she seems willing to discuss the relationship and my gut tells me I should, but I have learned not to trust my gut in this process. I'll keep distancing.

One thing that concerns me is that she is the most stubborn person I have ever met. I think even if she realizes she made a mistake she will never back off her decision. I guess I'll just have to see what happens.
