So I've been thinking a lot about her email that I posted a few posts back. I will be seeing her tonight. I responded to her by telling her that I would like to respond and discuss it when I was feeling a bit less emotional, and I appreciated her being so open, honest and sincere.
I'm still looking for any more advice, it's always welcome . Starsky, Wonka?, 25yearsmlc? I welcome and value everyone's advice, so insightful to have others not directly involved give feedback!
The email to me shows me how much my W needs to work on herself before we begin to work on a R of any kind. Of course I need to continue my reflective listening, improving my conflict resolution skills, and on being more direct with my communication and less controlling. Super easy! Right?
I'm impressed by her understanding of how we got here. However, in no place is her A mentioned. Obviously, this remains a pretty big issue. Her explanations do not justify an A in my eyes, but her explanations do show an understanding of what has happened.
I need to formulate a plan for some thoughts when I see her to acknowledge the email and appreciate what she wrote, and still keep my detachment.
