All of you are helping my resolve. Thanks, that’s why I came back.

GEL, you’re right of course. I reread the snippet I quoted from the C. In three lines of text he told me four times to make her leave. SpinelessBube was saying, “I don’t want you to leave.” DevelopingSpineBube was thinking, “No comment.” Man-o-SteelBube is thinking more along the lines of, “Do you need help packing?”

You know, as recently as yesterday I was hoping that W would reconsider and stay to work things out. Now that she’s stuck to it for a couple of days and I’ve had some time to get used to the idea, I’m at the point where I really do hope she does leave. As I’ve said, I do sincerely want us to work this thing out. I just think we NEED for her to away from both me and the girls for a while if there is any hope of fixing things. I’m NOT giving up on the M, but I want her out. As for the distinction between letting her leave and making her leave, I’m not sure about what I need to do. The C said to toss her out, but in spite of my improvements, I honestly don’t know if I can do that. Maybe I need to call the C this afternoon.
