I do still have a problem with overreacting when we have any positive contact. I think I don't realize just how hard it is for her to contact me about stuff, because I know she's feeling very guilty (based on things she's said), plus there's that whole thing about WAW's being in a very angry/defensive state and looking for justification for what they're doing. I have done my very best with what I have said when I reply, but I keep forgetting to let her have the last word sometimes.

Today I texted an unsolicited picture of the cat since she asked abut him yesterday. Have to be very careful about that, because it could easily be seen as trying to manipulate her feelings. And maybe it was. I should know better than that. The reason she asked before was because I had been quit for days.

<sigh>

Back to darkness and working on myself.
