I haven't been around much. Been busy. But Irish, I'm very happy to login and see how you're handling things. Your perspective and the way you protect your daughters while still being a little open to conversation.
You seem to realize how broken your ex is. She seems to be getting a glimpse herself. Long road to be sure.
I doubt you wanted to be when you got here, but you are truly an inspiration, Irish. I truly hope your ex can get whole again at some point and can reconnect with your daughters in a healthy way. I think that would be very good for your daughters in the long run.
Peace, AJ

So another feral MLCer comes out when the LBS starts to truly move on. As someone else posted, part of the MLC script?
Well done Irish. You handled that with a lot of composure and class. Reading it I sense a woman who knows she messed up big time, and doesn't know how to fix it or believe she can. My stbxh also had a defeatist attitude as well as the typical MLC tendency to project it all onto the LBS.
Keep up the good work. Let's see where she is post- holidays.

Sit quietly, the answers will reveal themselves when you least expect them to. The past is gone, the present is a gift and you need to focus on today, allow the future to reveal itself when it is ready.

Thank you for sharing that Irish. It's a chance for us all to get into the MLC mind a bit. You handled it so well, much better than I would I'm sure. You and the girls and so strong, I am so proud of you guys.
I hope your holidays are wonderful, sounds like they will be.
