but I have to respect me and stop allowing her to do things I wouldn't accept in a new relationship.
What are these things, BD?
Honestly, most of the things I found disrespectful she stopped last summer. But the one that remains is a pretty big one...continued contact with OM.
So far, I've followed the advice of my DB coaches:
- don't worry about OM for now - continue working on me - take the time until court and make it awesome
As I look back over the last 7-8 months, I think it's fair to say I've done a pretty good job for the most part in following this advice.
In my last coaching session, we agreed to continue enjoying the moment until court, and if W continued to press for D, then change gears and start detaching, start doing more GAL, create more mystery, be less available, etc. I think Mach1 has been telling me the same thing as well.
I think that's what I'm doing now, but I also think it's time to take a stronger stance on the OM. He is a deal breaker for me and it's time I started acting like it.
