Yes, friend texted me last night "don't worry, good update" and called me this morning. I had my hopes up based on that, but didn't quite live up to my expectations:
1. W is happy with the changes I have been making over the past month. 2. W is glad we are doing counseling. 3. W is still feeling lost, like there is something missing. 4. W doesn't know what she wants with moving, she is all over the map and makes no sense (sidenote...welcome to my world...). 5. Friend asked about tat-boy and her "obsession". She said not obsessed with tat-boy, but that he is 30, ultra-good looking, started a business, is really inspirational, and basically that she is more living vicariously through him. Unfortunately, friend didn't push this and ask her about contacting him on her visit to xyz city. 6. W is, in her opinion, better, but still not herself. 7. Friend talked about the negative effect this move would have on me and the kids and W talked about how she knows, but she wants to do the move anyway.
So, it was positive from a standpoint of how W said she is doing, but didn't have the effect of getting her to open up on tat-boy or stop doing it. So, we'll call this one a push?
