So about half an hour after I arrived home I replied to her texts, I accepted her apology for getting me late, and said I would pass on the info to my S about the cancelled event. I also said that tonight would be a good time to carve the kids pumpkins.
She replied Ok sounds good.
I picked up the kids and came home, W was in a good mood, She cooked dinner and I had the kids carving pumpkins, they turned out great, W took pictures and sent them to a bunch of people, Then I put the kids to bed and then went to the basement to watch a movie while W was upstairs.
In the morning S was in the MBR looking for my W so she called out to him from the spare bed room, I guess its the first time the kids noticed she is sleeping there now.
W was up after me, we talked logistics of the kids and then I said good bye and left for work.
OK this is the tough part, I am being warmer to her. she is mirroring the same to me. but I give and inch and my heart wants to take a mile. This is why its easier to be cold to her,, that way feelings don't grow and thoughts don't get ahead of the situation.
This has happened to me already I mistake W being nice as her wanting R but only forcing her to be more distant so I don't get the wrong idea of where she is at.
I think If I stick with "treat her like a neighbor" I should be fine.
