Quote: you must let H know that you don't want D. You don't have to get into any heavy R discussions, just throw it out there every once in awhile and go back to "as if". For example, when H was asking you where you were going to live, you could say in an upbeat tone something like, "Well, all along I was hoping that we could work things out and we could buy another house over in... ...Beyond that I haven't really thought about it." Then you don't wait or look for a reaction. You just continue with being happy and acting "as if" and move on to something else.
Christine, you are amazing. You're cheering ME up too.
Hang in there, Carrie, we're behind you all the way.
