Old dog seeks new trick

[Old Dog]

I understand GAL. I've been thinking my life is so dull for months before this. I was just passively waiting for the day I could go home (my job is 180m away).

It's the detach bit I'm not sure about. I'm still waiting for the DB book to arive, I presumed there's something in there. What I'm not clear about (actually that's just about everything right now) is how detached? Do I not talk about it with her? Do I move out? I don't think that's what it means as I've seen other advice saying don't do that. At least I'm still at home at weekends. How do I act? Just getting through the day is an acheivement at the moment.

Despite not being very good at communicating while we've been apart for 2 years with me working away, I feel the need to call her now, but I know she won't be offering any comfort. What a mess. I can't think straight about a lot of this.
