heard her sniffle a few times and glanced out of the corner of my eye. Went about playing with the kiddo. I heard it getting louder so I used a go to bailout excuse. That is when she said about getting home to the girlfriend.
It sounds as if she was trying to get you to notice she was crying........and to ask her what was wrong. Another female tactic, but maybe I have her all wrong.
If you don't recall anything she said that could have been hints, then I wouldn't worry too much about it. If she did give "hints", I think it would b/c she wanted you to pursue her, and then she would not have to humble herself and do what she needs to do. That's not how things should work. She should seek your forgiveness and express remorse straightforwardly, and with humility.
Like I said, hearing the news about the girlfriend is what prompt her to have this little talk.
Btw, you handled it perfectly on your end........except maybe for that statement you made on the end, which gave her reassurence. Not sure how you left things, but otherwise you seemed to have done well. I want to leave you with a tip that I have about her saying it's too late and you are moving on, etc. Don't fall for these types of remarks! You LBH's are way too quick to want to assure the WW that she still stands a good chance with you. Don't you get it? She needs to think you aren't eager, or even very interested. Otherwise, you will find yourself being dumped again and again. For gosh sakes guys, play a little harder to get with the gal who broke your heart and the stomped on it.
So, whenever the next chat takes place, please don't offer these type of statements, and do not bail her out, okay? Lean back and see what she has to say, before opening your big mouth. Be the cool guy who was ignoring her sniffles and putting all his attention on playing with his son. That guy was more attractive and harder to get. At least, be a challenge for her.
It is not about what you feel should work in your M. It is about doing the work that gets the right results. Do what works!
