I forgot to mention that after we had these talks, W brought up Christmas.
I said that I hadn't really been thinking about Christmas plans, and that I was trying to take things one day at a time.
She said that she assumed that I would be taking D to my families. But the way she said it, it sounded like she was upset that she wouldn't be going. She said that she was fine, she would just sit home.
I just gave my Boundaries about "being together". But in the name of love, Do I let her know that she is welcome to join us?
Let her know that D and I WILL be going, and she is more than welcome to join us? I don't want to completely obliterate my boundary, but at the same time, i feel that I need to be compassionate, even if she won't do the same for me.
