I’m doing fine, just really frustrated with it all. When she was away on her trip I put a lot of effort into the car search thing, only to receive zero appreciation and coldness, with a touch of ridicule for the car I brought home. She’s in a bad place right now but I know it’s not my fault, so I won’t take it personally.
I also know I’ll be fine no matter what happens.
I recently found out that the bump on the head she sustained while on vacation was worse than she first realized. She now tells me she was feeling dizzy and out of it every morning. Refused to go for examination. I’m pretty sure she’ll be ok now, (it’s been 9 days since the incident) but I will continue to watch closely. She says she’s just now starting to feel like her normal MLC self. (I may have added the MLC part )
I wonder what else happened when she was out cold. Ugh.
She seems to be warming up a bit. (again) Maybe the head injury really messed her up. Maybe just coming back home to reality distressed her. Maybe she can sense I’m considering giving her the Reality Talk… maybe she’s reading this thread! I do believe she doesn’t want to lose me.
Of course the plan is to hold off until Monday when I talk to my DB coach, and then hopfully even until our anniversary trip at the end of June. If it comes to it, I’m leaning towards a Reality Letter. That way I can have everything I want to say polished and perfected, and she can have it to look over again and again.
It doesn’t escape me that many times the MLC’er only woke up after the LBS totally gave up, or issued the Reality Check.
Thanks all, and Bust On!
