Hey Ballast!

Good to see you updating, even if it isn't particularly great news. I feel like we are on similar journeys with early April BDs and Ws who have been resolute in their desire to end the MR. It [censored], and I feel for you on your second go-round and with a kid.

Ultimately, I think that our Ws resoluteness can help us with our detachment. I don't know how I would detach at all if I was constantly fielding calls/texts from the W. Speaking to her only once in the past 3 months has helped me detach greatly. It sounds like you are getting to a similar place. That also means that we have more time to focus on ourselves. I love your last post. I would love to get to that place. Putting in the work, introspection, and exhibiting patience to get there is the hard part.
