Good post, Bug. Agreed.

Paul-The pain is awful isn't it? Gut punch after gut punch. Time and growth and the decision to 'drop the rope' as they say around here.

I think when you talked to w, you expected her to react or say something that would indicate she still wants you and M. This is why relationship talks don't work. She doesn't know. She is confused and you had expectations whether you realized it or not. I am guilty of this. It only sets you up for hurt. When wise DBer's say No expectations, this is what they are talking about.

So sorry that you are hurting. Process it. Get lots of sleep. Hope today is a better day.
