ST,

This is a proud, headstrong, stubborn woman..... but a really good woman (before this).
I think if there is D, that's it.
I can already tell her 1st inclination is to run, not to D. So why not satisfy the preference?

Plan B..... in a way I suppose. I don't want to be exposed to it. Like I said, I want to buy time for her to clear the tunnel.
Forgiveness will have to come afterward and is a different animal.
Some can forgive an A.... some can't. I don't know which I am. If she was clear thinking, then absolutely not. With this mental illness called MLC..... I think I would really try. I do subscribe to Hearts Blessing's posts which say let them do it, and burn themselves out (This is what Larry Bilotta teaches also). It's required to navigate the tunnel. Above all, I still love this woman.... even if she's not with me or comes back to me. My #1 priority is to make sure she gets out of the tunnel and isn't stuck forever (like her mom is). I will get on one way or another..... She won't.

Drop the rope, yes... that is the objective for me and I will get there. Close the door forever, hopefully not and definitely not prematurely.

As long as one loves there is hope.
