I don't know what happened to the post I sent a couple of days ago, but it didn't appear. Oh well......

I guess the answer to this is that since I do not talk about it - people don't ask.
Yep, I think you hit the nail. As for the elephant.....I would say others aren't bothered by it b/c they don't see the elephant. The only time the elephant shows up is when you seem to think the subject of your R should come up in conversation. What did you talk to these people about before you and W broke up?
You are allowing the M separation to hinder you around family/friends. By reading, I get the feeling you seem embarrassed and tense or awkward whenever you get around other people who know both of you. You need to learn how to act as if she is not a part of your life.....just as you did before you met her. When you are comfortable, others will be too. It's all part of that new self-confident man.
I think it is time for you to approach W about Christmas plans.
It is not about what you feel should work in your M. It is about doing the work that gets the right results. Do what works!
