The decision came from the discussion where the W just “can’t see a future together.” She also kept bringing up inane things from the past as some sort of rationale for not being able to move forward. I said if you don’t want to work on the M, there’s no point in continuing the MC. The MC backed me up on this point. I then said. “If you are done, you need to end it.” The MC asked if I meant that because she knew I don’t want a D, and I looked at W and said, “I’m letting you go. If this is what you want, you need to move on.” It took her by surprise, as she thought I’d never let go because of my feelings for her and the kids. She will not change her mindset until she feels some sort of loss, and I understand that even then, nothing may change. No matter what, I’ve been given the gift of time and I intend on using to better myself.
