NYS, as I have read you didn't get any response from In laws...me neither...No response to my Text "HNY"...I think deep down I just wanted a "you too"...anything to show that they have not just turned me off like the W has...
This is so crazy how amzing the human mind is...It can turn off a switch (defense mech) and you just don't care anymore...Why can't I do the same?
That is it...the backbone of detaching...figure how to turn your switch off...I read a book on detaching and making yourself "fall out of love" (like WAW has done) and basically you do the same that W does...think about all the bad times and all the things she has done to me and imagine that bright in color and then the good time visualize them in black and white and blur the picture in you head...then remember another bad time in vivid color etc...do this over and over and you begin to know how the WAW is detaching.
The problem is that we/I are scared to detach...it almost feels like we're playing God with love and forcing ourselves to detach and get over the S just to have to get on the roller coaster and try to "re-establish the love" again if the WA comes back...But is that such a bad thing...so the worst thing is that you have to re-establish love and a relationship...that could be fun...dating, getting that warm feeling in your gut when you get to see her. But then again maybe she dumps you on you a$$ and your mentally prepared for it (more likly)
