Good to see you hanging in there. FWIW, you did well in your interactions with your w. Was it handled perfectly?
No, but who does that?
Was it improved? YES - and that's no small feat. So, well done.
I look forward to your posts ONLY being about you and GAL and your d, but for now, maybe you can try to embrace the ambiguity inherent in your situation.
In many ways we are ALL living in ambiguity.

- I have picked up keys to the new place and got services ordered and bought some stuff. I should have been excited but I just felt sad. Have had the shakes all day as well. Not sure you "Should have been" excited, but I take your point. Thing is, your growth in this ordeal will Not be linear. You'll have setbacks, and that's normal.
HER path won't likely be linear either, which may account for the many apparent mood swings.
Give yourself a break, take a breath and really truly, go one day at a time.
Sometimes that may mean taking things an hour at a time...
Going out tomorrow with D8 for horse riding then she has her friends bday party then I have a night out for a school reunion so that should be good. busy busy
Reunions are a blast when you embrace old friends and everyone just wishes the best for their buddies. The goal is to HAVE FUN!!
