She literally just told you about the other man like what, 5 min ago. And you mentioned that she had said she would be with him if she could. Did I misunderstand that?

I ask this bc you make it seem like you do not understand why she is so up and down. This shouldn't be that hard. This woman is very clearly torn between two different life's. She admitted feelings for another man. And you wonder why she is torn.

I feel like she is giving you the answers and you pick and choose what you want to hear. I'd bet a months pay that there is so much more that us readers do not get to read. We are only hearing your side.

I'm not siding with her but I feel like you make this so much harder on yourself.

Can't you see that if you would back off that she'd come running? We all do but you don't. You'd rather talk to her everyday about her feelings and then tell us that you are going to detach only to then run back to her.

Dang.
