I'm sorry you see it that way it's just a word but quite apt. You see I look at the challenge I have with my WW and her AP/LO as a kind of war I am battling to save my M from D as is what the whole site is about, just my view don't shoot me!
With regards to those strategies please see my previous threads and you will see I am GAL and trying my best to DR, working on myself is ALL I can do as I'm the only one I can control.
My entire post is about limerence and you will see I understand it can last anywhere between 3-36 months I'm aware it could be a long haul but what else can I do?
I have separated from my WW after she said she would not give up her AP, I am in LC no texts, emails, calls at all and stay as dark as I can. I never pursue she always initiate then I stay friendly and her safe place.
Your comments really help me and to TBH I am doing most of what you're suggesting.
DR'ing - am seeing this rollercoaster of an experience but beginning to detach from the whole A and her I'm just not wasting my time on it and focusing instead on the boys and I.
Open door - NO WAY. We communicate when she comes to see the boys when she is to come around again all very business like.
GAL - exactly the same.
Dropping the rope - thanks I needed this. Slowly not being a part of her life is becoming increasingly easier and that's after only 7-months! Where will I be in another 7-months?
I will continue to do what I'm doing as this not only benefits my M BUT also me as I become a better person.
Thanks again for responding I do appreciate it.
Take care.
Mark.
