Hey Py, there are three different motivations on discussing WAW's behavior:
1. It hurts and you need to share that pain for support. 2. You need help sorting through appropriate boundaries to her conduct. 3. You seek validation that she's a bad person for causing you pain.
I'm all about #s 1 and 2. #3 is about you, and is another opportunity for you to keep growing. As for that "if she was here", this isn't about you getting your medicine and her not getting hers. We all reap what we sew. You don't have to stay. But this is about you and not her. Your growth. And from a sense of DBing, DB is pretty clear that since you're the one here, you're the one we're going to work with. It's ok to feel good about stepping up to do the work by the way, unless you use it to go all #3 on her. Who was it that just posted "the truth used as a weapon is no longer pure"? Can't remember, but I like it
