Im not really schooled with the stages of the crises I have read they may go back and forth so you may see touch and gos
and we as a hurting LBS will read into their confused signals
but unless you see her showing real signs of wanting to reconcile, like seeing a therapist, wanting to move home, staying in instead of playing with D friends reconnecting as a good parent, showing signs of responsible adult behavior- I would keep moving forward and away put all your energy to help your sons- and heal yourself and continue to keep the focus on you
You mentioned many years back she came back when you moved on- maybe she needs to see you moving on lovingly
Im so sorry for your youngest son We have to become 2 parents explain to them it is not their fault sometimes people i life get "sick" mentally, emotionally, and MLC she still loves them but she is trying to figure out her unresolved childhood wounds this takes many years and only a chosen few will R
Our children can get through this we have to be the strong parent let them see you lovingly letting her go and supporting their needs become stronger than we are and no negative talk about their mother
