Gordie #15: closing the cake shop

[Lifes Twists]

Gordie,

I remember when Cali's ex did what your spouse is doing and he was on cloud 9 and thought he was into the reconciliation mode. I wanted to just grab him and give him a good shake to wake him up and tell him that his ex was not done and he was in for a lot of heart ache. Wish I had then, so now I am telling you. Keep moving forward with your plans. To stop now will lead to heart ache on your part and not allow you the opportunity to reconcile in the future. Like others here have already said you need the space to clear your head. She needs the space to continue to bake in the life she has created and to come to terms with what she has said.

I would not respond at all to what she has written. if she can't do this face to face then it has no meaning and you don't even have to acknowledge you have seen or read these notes.

You are on a good path right now. It will be painful, but should lead to healing for you and your family if you don't falter and respond to these trivial notes she leaves for you. Wait for concrete action on her part, not words.
