Update on my situation -

She moved out to rental down the street. Signed a lease for a year. It’s much less of a house than ours. I’ve been on the road for a full year, almost to the day of BD. So we’re starting our new normal.

I was a little taken aback that she moved so close. I feel boundaries are going to be an issue.

She now follows a bunch of narcissist hashtags on IG. So this went from:

-ILWYBINILWU on BD to...
-I don’t hate you I’m just done - for a couple months to...
-Spewing anger - for a few months to...
-We’re still a family just a different looking family - for a few months to...
-A narcissist manipulator she just just discovered she had been living with for 20 years.

She wanted space, then she wanted me to chase; I loved you for so long, then we were never a good match.

It’s as if she’s cycling between wanting to “be cool” with the breakup and just move on, and needing to hold onto the anger to justify the actions.
