Thank you for the thoughtful reply Bustorama! You've definitely hit the nail on the issues I need to work on.
W came over on Saturday to pick up some stuff. We had a nice friendly conversation. I know this isn't textbook DBing, but it was nice seeing her act a bit more normal around me. She wasn't sure if I wanted to speak to her since I haven't initiated contact at all in the past 14+ days.
She mentioned that the situation has been challenging for her as well and that not talking to me for this long felt weird. She said she wanted to keep the communication open and that it was nice talking to me.
I enjoyed being honest and friendly with her, but I'm also trying to remind myself that this does not change her decision in any way.
I have mixed emotions, but trying to stay focus on myself and the path forward.
