Thank you, Sandi. I have read your threads, and honestly...they're brilliant.
I actually stopped telling her that I want her back, didn't want D, etc. a while back. I haven't really backed down on that. I think I'm just getting confused telling what's working and what's not. Probably because (in a perfect world) nice=good screaming=bad.
The previous time I put my foot down with her, she got a LOT more chill, even a little flirty.
It felt good. Then she started opening up.
Then her meltdown yesterday happened.
Funny thing...her family mentioned to me that W believed for years that she has ADHD...which I have, and our S has. But she's denied it, hasn't ever gotten treatment for it...and now accuses me of not having my life together, and doesn't want me in the room with the doctor that's going to help our S with it...I'm thinking she's afraid that the dr is going to point out that she has it, too, and then her entire dialog against me is going to be flipped on it's head.
I think she'd do or say just about anything to keep her mind thinking that I'm wrong.
So...that's a big thing coming up that she's going to have to deal with.
Honestly, this could be interesting. Heh.
She's got a lot of heavy reality to deal with, and it's coming very, very quickly.
I'm not going to be surprised if she tries to reschedule the dr visit and doesn't tell me about it.
