The closer this gets to be final I find the thoughts of initiating a R talk creeping into my head. I am not sure why, I guess it has been so long since it has happened sometimes I wonder if she is afraid to bring them up herself for fear of me rejecting her. At times I feel she is feeling me out to get an idea of what I am willing and not willing to do. IDK. I guess I am finding it harder to continue sitting back, not initiating anything with her and watching the date of D inching closer.
I was feeling quite a lot the same way. The other day, I got together with W to discuss a lot of things, like taxes, schedule for the kids, moving forward with D, etc. I said something like "I had hoped for R, but you obviously are happy and moving on, so my hopes have waned. I guess I'm ready to move forward with the D." I am ready to move on, but figured I'd open that door a little and see if she'd open it. She didn't, and that's ok.
