I didn't realize until I saw it that I realized I hoped you would post. Your experience with MLC is illuminating and has been quite spot on.
A tremendous thank you to all of you who stopped by my thread today. This is not a good day for me. I want to e-mail/text xSO to see if he is OK but I won't. We are cleaning out my parent's house and it is getting emptier and emptier. I feel like I am on that bungee jump platform, all harnessed up and the wind whipping at my face. I can enjoy the platform and the view it affords but I know that I cannot stay there all day and must jump.

Thank you for saying that. I did not give the truth dart purposely but I do not regret that I did. I wonder what his counsellor will say. After all, she only knows her "facts" from him. I know there is nothing I can do about that, but I am curious. He thinks I should go to counselling; he highly recommends it. [BTW, I am not opposed just pressed for time and money these days]
I recall him saying to me during our conversation that over the course of our relationship he always invested in it and worked at it....and was always rewarded. He plays with some woman's child and wants to be a father, no consideration for what his life may look like - with just her (and her not-yet-ex-husband) nor me in it. If what he says is true, he is in a terrible spot (MLC!) so I am glad he is at least talking to someone because I am guessing that GF does not have much of a clue.
I won't stand still. I don't want to stand still. But for today, I want to go slow. This minute, I wouldn't mind my favourite pillow and my cat and the sound of her purring beside me.
