it's been a while since i last posted because there really hasn't been quantup leaps of progress to report on my sitch anyways, but i do have a question that i need opinions on.
current situation: my w and i still live under the same roof. i have been MUCH better detaching and GAL than i did before (sometimes i falter, but i get back on track quickly). w still spends endless hours on the computer talking to her friends and OM (grrr... ), but i ignore this completely.
by the time i wake up to get ready for work in the morning, she is usually still up talking to her friends online. we are still on opposite schedules (she sleeps throughout most of the day, and i sleep at night). this is what confuses me. every now and then, when i am getting ready for work, she will come to me, give me a very warm and affectionate hug, and she will tell me that she misses me so much. i tell her that i miss her as well, and leave it at that. after that, she will go on her merry way back to the computer and chatting away with her friends and OM.
i know that this is mean of me to think, but i have noticed this behavior of hers and i'm starting to see a pattern. it seems as if when she can sense we are drifting apart, she will give me some reassurances of that sort. to me, it seems almost as if this is some sort of stalling tactic, because she knows that the next alternative would be for me to suggest that her and i live separately. for her, that would mean moving back in with her parents and missing out on all the freedom she has while we are still together at home.
maybe i'm thinking too much, but any opinions on this would be greatly appreciated. i really don't know what to think of this.....
God, grant me the Serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
Courage to change the things I can,
And Wisdom, to know the difference...
