As I've had time to cool down from yesterday's talk. I've come to realize that the majority of it was probably more venting past hurts than the reality of today. There were some misconceptions cleared up and truly the conversation went well. W seemed to want to be around me afterwards.
I will be extremely diligent and will do everything I can to not argue my point even in the subtlest of ways but I think these are issues we have mostly resolved or are at least well on the path to it.
I think that there is still conflict in her but I think that if I lovingly detach that it will fade away.
I've noticed other positive things lately. Especially in the way she talks. Things continue to get better.
This has certainly given me a whole lot of insight into the problem and why we have been in a holding pattern so long.
My job requires me to play alpha male once in a while. Last night was one of those times. We spoke about it this morning and she said with a smile. It's fine as long as you do it with a smile. I think that pertains to a lot more than my job.
