So as of around 4:00AM this morning, I can officially say that I dropped the damn rope. Told W that I will no longer be disrespected by her communications with OM in this home. W basically gave the "I don't have to answer to you."
First let me say I'm sorry to hear things went so poorly. Second, I think you misunderstand what dropping the rope means. It means letting go. It doesn't mean telling her off and getting into a huge fight, that's really the complete opposite of dropping the rope. Have you heard the saying "the opposite of love isn't hate, it's indifference"? Indifference is dropping the rope. Dropping the rope is letting go and not caring what happens with the R after that. I read a lot of anger, resentment and hostility in your recent posts and I think it really blew up in this latest incident with your W. Somehow you've got to find your way past that and find "indifference". When you get there then you can drop the rope, and THEN you will be on the road to recovery.
