still holding on - 4

[u-turn]

I think things are still dissolving here - going in the opposite direction that I was hoping. She is pulling way back from me and I am letting her.

We have shared very few words this week, except for last night. She was telling me of her work day and during her story she stopped, her look changed, and she left the room. About 15 minutes later she came back, very angry, and said "I'm done" and I asked what she meant by that. She said "I can tell by the look on your face that I cannot talk to you about anything - I am done with this". I wasn't quite sure what she was talking about, so I asked her again what she meant by those words. She said that she isn't going to continue trying and is done with us.

I told her that she says this when she doesn't want to deal with problems - (I don't think I should have said this, but cannot unring that bell).

This is very out of the blue again, though she often uses those words (I'm done), when she gets frustrated and things don't go her way.

She slept in another room last night - this hasn't happened in a long time.

Time will tell what is happening.
