What would a real man's / non MNG response to a possible question regarding attending D5s party look like?
WW: "I would love to attend D5's BD party".
You: "Considering our current arrangement, I think it would be best if you didn't".
WW: "You really mean it's best for you! D5 asked me to go to her party and she'll be crushed if I am not there".
You: "This situation has not been easy for any of us". "I'm sure D5 would not object to having two BD parties, if you want to give her one for your family & friends to attend. My family & friends will be attending this one".
WW: "You are a selfish jerk!"
You: "Okay, bye"
I am not the best at wording dialogs. The thing is, your WW practically invited herself, which is not appropriate. Allow her to experience the reality of her bad decisions to tear apart her family.
I am happy to hear you are doing much better. ((hugs))
It is not about what you feel should work in your M. It is about doing the work that gets the right results. Do what works!
