Yeah Heavy, you're doing great. You are the calm one, the lighthouse, and it probably pisses her off to know this, even if it's only on a subconscious level. She has this whole new external life, but no doubt her inner life is in complete turmoil. Yours isn't - it's not turmoil we're in, I don't think. It's sadness and grief, but we're the grounded ones. She wants that, but not you... so she says, so she thinks. I could be projecting a bit from my own experience these past few weeks, watching my WW and seeing the conflict and pain in her face, even as she resolutely insists she has moved on. But you're doing all you can do, and not doing all you shouldn't. Good for you, and thanks again, for being such a great model for me.
