In retrospect, I'm really not sure.

When she first left, she was angry and hostile so in my mind, these were positive steps.

However, without identifying what our goals/wants/needs/intentions are, along with addressing/resolving the underlying issues (i.e. her insecurity with me), then it would largely be treading water.

I was hoping that was the next milestone, but then this setback occurred.

It seems clear to me that many of her issues are innate. No matter what I do to allay her insecurity, it is never enough, which is why I think it is so critical she get therapy.
