You guys are all right - in retrospect I was digging - because I feel lied to. Not that it makes it any better.
Our dynamics have been like that for a LONG time. And we absolutely push each others buttons.
I'm trying, really I am. This girl in particular brings out the really bad side of me. She used to be my 'friend' too until she couldn't understand boundaries, but that is another story.
I will do better.
Thank you AS for the list on detaching - I need to write that in my little book I carry around.
