She left - 2

[Upwards]

gogofo that all sounds good, at least you've both managed to have a really long talk without any hostility - sounds like that is definite progress & its really good that you allowed her to start the talk and didn't pressure.

I know last time me & H had a talk like this so much was running through my head and in the days that followed I felt like there was so much I hadn't or should have said but I think most of that was just follow on from what we'd discussed.

Maybe she talks as though its permanent as she isnt sure and doesnt want to give you mixed messages but her emotions show the other side of things? I hope whatever happens you continue to move forwards and stay positive as it sounds like you've been doing really well recently.
