Thank you Fogg, that was a really powerful response.

Especially in light of the fact that I was just served.

I know it changes nothing, I know about the stories of people getting served and coming out of it. I know all of it. It still [censored].

Just a dichotomy to have my W here laughing an hour ago, have her give me a big hug and then both of us laugh because she was more affectionate than she usually lets herself be. She playfully patted the back of my neck in a way that she used to whenever I had said something out of line in our M.

Yep, we shared an inside joke together for the first time in nine months. When she left, she sent me a text with an emoji kiss. And truthfully, I don't think she was doing all of this to appease me.

Then an hour later the process server showed up.

What a day.
