Thornton, I can understand her indecision and confusion, I think. Do you want her in your life? Do you have a relationship with D? (I think it might be nice to maintain that R. She's not the one you have issues with; it's W.)

I believe she's doing the best she can. Is it enough for you?

No, it wasn't fake at all. It's an imperfect human trying to maintain a R when she has issues she needs to work out.

And yeah, i agree with what others have said. D doesn't get to determine where they live. She's a little kid. Stability is great. But hey, a summer in wherever they moved to and then back to CO isn't out of the question, right?

I'm so sorry you're still in this mess.
