Oh KAW - Please don't feel It was not the subject matter, but how we need to respond that struck me as incredible. I am sooo guilty of doing the same, just don't have the courage to fess up - I just bury my transgressions
Anyhow, some interesting developments over at Nice and Slow. Yesterday, NG tells me he called OW's sister to update her on the sitch. For a while, NG has been telling me that he really does not enjoy being marriage councillor to OW and her H, and he thought OW's sister was the only other likely candidate. OW and her H are on holiday this week with their kids, and NG expects storms next week, and I think really does not want to deal with it. Yeah
As hurtful as it is listening to him talk about OW, and how she needs support etc etc, I do know that my best progress has come from just validating and not arguing. Once he has vented with me, I sense he does not have the interest or energy to go into it all over again with OW. Next week should be interesting.
And oh yes, he forgot that OW's birthday was June 1st. AWESOME. Can I do a little celebratory jig?
