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.
hi blue. I will. I got out to the gym and worked out. Seeing my class mates and getting smiles and good mornings really helped remind me that life goes on. It also helped to get my body feeling better from endorphines and blood flow.

I spoke with my big sister and a good old friend about my feelings. I go from anger to tears today to just feeling dumbfounded. You are correct that R talks don't. Work. Although I believe W needed to hear that I am losing faith. She is still continuing to say she doesn't know if she wants to stay married. I told W that married like this is not acceptable tonne.

Blues, you are right. I want her to wake up from this....I believe today now that ive had time to see it, that my heart expected some reaction from W yesterday. She is lost. I cant help her. I must work to let her go and free my self. Thank
you to you and everybody elsenfor looking in on me. I can actuallynfeel it
