It's common ... "You want the D too". , "see we are better off this way" ...."you are happier now" ...... All those types of statements. For me it was a great chance for a nicely rehearsed truth dart. I very calm would look her in the eyes and tell her " no this is never what I wanted, I do not want a D but I respect your choice and your decision, I would do many things differently if I could, that being said I will continue to focus on making myself better and I will be ok regardless." End of story end of conversation ... I would tell her I had some things to take care of and leave. This did open up dialogue as she typically wanted to know what I would have done differently ... Which gave me a chance to validate and address her valid complaints ... Not the BS ones just the valid ones
