WW moved out. Whirlwind of emotions

[reframe]

Maika,

Thanks man. I know intellectually that not reciprocating the hug (or half reciprocating) was the right call. Her annoyed reaction actually reenforces that - apparently I'm suppose to just accept whatever bone she throws my way.

I see that sense of entitlement all along in her:
- she was willing to leave the dogs (really) to move out
- she's been alternative crushes, but didn't actually leave until she found an OM to jump right in with.
- she seems to want to act like everything is normal with me. Like we'll still be all buddy buddy (When she wants to of course) after she threw away am 11 year relationship.

My own personal issue is that I'm WAY to willing to blame myself for this. There were things I could have done better to be sure, but I keep going over this in my head, and part of me is still convinced that had I just been more patient and supportive when she was sick (and not worried about our poor sex life) we'd be good now. I talk myself out of this attitude, then back into it, regularly.

W.r.t climbing. I had a major injury and setback a few years ago, and my climbing was mostly sidelined until recently in favor trying to be there for the wife. I climb mid 12s on sport, hard 10/easy 11 on trad.
I've also applied for the AMGA rock guide course this summer.
You?
