Hello Lisa. Thank you for your advice. I do believe you are right about calling her on her inconsistency and inconsideration.

Even so, I think you are also right about being very very loving to her while I do so.

I sent her a text just now apologizing for my reaction to her travel and wishing her well on her trip.

When she offers to do something, I just expect it may not get done. No surprises when it doesn't. No surprises when she's inconsiderate. Doesn't matter.

She right though... if I don't trust her, it's my problem. I can't keep putting myself where the matter of trusting her matters to me. It doesn't matter where she goes or what explanation she offers.

I can't turn this around with her. I can only act like a better me. I don't get mad, I don't ask questions, I don't make demands. Like you said, when she doesn't do something, just let her know nicely what I expect next time and keep going.

Sandi you are right I deserve better and I must act like someone who really does.

I can do this.
