What to do when an EA involved?

[Hoju]

I met with W for coffee today to discuss the house sale. I feel things went very well, I was cool, calm and collected. While the outcome was not what I would have liked (listing tomorrow) I had zero expectations for the coffee so I wasn't let down.

She seemed sad with her new apartment and when she asked what I'd been up to she seemed really sad at all the stories and activities I've been doing. She mentioned she was flat broke and wasn't able to afford a lawyer for the separation. I considered offering her the money for it but opted not to pay for a divorce I didn't want. I think she is getting a hard dose of reality as she sees all the plans she has getting further and further away from becoming a reality.

Shortly after I left she sent me a text apologizing for something she had said during our talk, it was minor and I didn't even think twice about it. At the end of the text she said "all i meant to say was that I'm proud of you". I thanked her and said not to worry about it at all.
