The point is well taken on not going to the next couples therapy session.
However, where we left the last one after talking about how the date didn't change her mind, still feeling done, etc. was the acknowledgement that we need a "break" as our next step.
Well, we live together and that isn't changing so the counselor kept this next session on the books (scheduled for tomorrow). The counselor kept the session on the book to discuss what a "break" would look like.
I know you guys will have some good ways to communicate that I don't want to go given that particular situation.
One complication that arose immediately was Christmas plans. Me, W, and D were supposed to go to my SIL's for my W's immediate families Christmas celebration next weekend.
I already put it out there that despite the situation between me and W, there was no way I wasn't going to not be where my family was celebrating Christmas. Meaning, I can still drop the rope and detach but "be there" for my D mostly.
The other thing I really need to work on is going around more upbeat/confident/strong. Yesterday/this Morning, I've done a good job dropping the rope but I feel like I'm just coming off upset/annoyed/short with her.
Which I am...I'm heartbroken and I don't want to loose my wife...so It's tough.
