The hardest decision - need advice, please!

Just catching up on your sitch DMR, it's still hard for me to read. This is pretty amazing, and I am so pleasantly surprised:

"Got a FB msg from W (along with daily kitty update) asking if I want her to pick me up Fri so I can go to the mall and get out of the house while she goes to dinner with [friend from old job]. They were supposed to go last week, but it got cancelled so that's when she came over and picked up the cat.

"we can go to a movie too afterwards if u want. Pls know I need u as a friend right now if that's ok. Nothing has changed but I like spending time with you."

I'd say a great deal has changed. She is starting to miss you and remembers that she likes spending time with you! You are not arch enemy #1 anymore! That is a BIG step in this journey of baby steps. You are doing great, keep it up!
