When we were in MC our therapist told me to just listen. I'm not sure if it helped but I remember one particularly memorable session. W said some horrible and selfish things and I was ready to say I'm done. But I didn't. Afterwards, she said, "Oh, I feel like that was really helpful for us!" Well, she dumped me anyway, but sometimes it's good to listen. Hold boundaries, don't react, and listen. I don't think I'd bring up the A in MC, but that's just my opinion.
11/4/15 W revealed EA/2 months later became PA with co-worker Reconciling since late April 2016 Don't give up until it's time, then move on Be patient, strong and kind but never a doormat
