F,

Good to see you, I thought you were going dark on us. (Just kidding!)

You really are doing great, hang in there.

I only have one thing to say about pointing out and blaming. I often say to my children "it's not what you say, it's how you say it". Think of it that way. If you said to W "no we can't be friends and it's your fault because you left", what would the reaction be? It definitely wouldn't be good! However, if you say "W, I want to be friendly for the girls, however, I can't hang out like friends. I am sorry, you chose to move on and I need to do the same", it still points out her decision but without the blame.
