At this point I wouldn’t put much stock in anything she says right now because she likely doesn’t know what she wants right now. My guess is she has lost attraction for you and is questioning if she sees a happy future together. Affairs are like cocaine and she is probably questioning why she doesn’t get the same feeling with you that she had during the affair.

How you act during this can and most likely determine the outcome. Your GAL for tomorrow is good. Keep it up.

I completely agree. This situation seems a bit different. But at the same time she had an affair and is leaving. I almost want to say she seem maybe a bit more honest, or upfront about what she’s thinking, but boy that’s a dangerous sentence to write let alone think. Maybe she’s still waffling? Idk I can’t put my finger on it.

I also agree with affairs becoming addictive and easier to fall into. Remember how it felt to fall into love. Or puppy love? The newness of it? How great it was….

I think getting a life could be more important than you than you know. Becoming, fun, busy, carefree, exciting, and mysterious could be what the doctor ordered. Yet you still have to do it for just you and it has to be genuine.
