"You know the tragic thing about divorce? I think we are kinder to each other now than we were together and work better as a team dividing and conquering tasks than ever before. It's sad. I miss you and will always love you. "
Quick, how should I respond?
I think I should say something like: "Thanks. It is tragic. I agree with what you said."
Thoughts?
I have received the same text. I responded with "There are no winners here, only losers."
I'm sure part of you wants to (figuratively) shake her and say "Then why are we doing this? Let's make it work", but that is the wrong approach. She has to come to the decision for reconciliation on her own, doesn't she? It just astounds me that they have these thoughts, and can't see that it was their actions that initiated the process in the first place!
Kramer, I know! It's tough to just sit on your hands here but it really is the right approach.

Looks like that's coming true for you. Keep it up! It's really motivating to see the actions you've taken come this far - especially the changes you are making for yourself!
Rip, thanks for the encouragement. Just gotta keep on keeping on!
