You have GOT to detach. What do you know about this process?

I know a bit about the theory. I have read the DR book, and understand that it is going into Observer mode. Not cold, or distant, as V pointed out to me, stay close, but taking a third person view of the interactions, leaving the emotions out of it.

Putting into practice is sometimes difficult. I have been extremely un-detached last night and this morning. WW has been showing affection and I have been responding. I can't help thinking it's temperature checking, as Sandi puts it. Thinking a bit more clearly now.

I don't want to muddy up the waters of advice you are receiving, but I can get you started on an action plan if you like.
