I'm prepared to mirror and validate. If/when I feel my emotions getting out of check, my exit strategy is to simply tell her that I'm leaving and spending the night at a friends so that I can take some time to process and think about what she's said.
Hello Badger,
I'm happy to hear you are taking Cadet's advice to mirror and vaildate.
When you have time, please try to post an update.
I wish you well.
Bob
