WAW Hired a Divorce Coach (Cont8.)

[SteveLW]

Scott, sorry the date caused you to struggle in your moving forward. LH and R2C really said all there is to say. I am sure you've regretted sending the text since, even though it felt like the right thing to do at the time.

Here is the problem: This date rolls around and you look back in regret at the MR ending. She looks back and regrets that the MR got started. You are texting (as LH pointed out) from your perspective on the date. You didn't consider her perspective of the date.

I hope that wasn't hurtful to hear, because it is the truth. Her looking at the marriage in a romantic way has been gone for a long time. You still look back at the MR fondly, and regret that it ended. Try to think about her perspective next time before you hit send.

Small setback. You have good plans to recover! Keep up the good work on the GAL.
