Well, my W has (I believe) left to take OM to report for duty. I told her to be safe driving tonight, and she said she wasn't driving there, she was just providing the transportation. She also told her sister and cousin today that she would have a lot more time soon and would like to do things with them.
What this means for my sitch is unclear. I don't know for sure whether or not this means the end of the A. OM will still be able to call her at times, still be able to email her, and he will eventually get leave, so she could still carry on a long-distance R with OM.
On the other hand, the army might give OM a sense of honor, and he might leave W alone after this. Basic training is now co-ed (except for barracks), so he also might meet a cute girl and start to forget about W.
I've been thinking that W has wanted to end the A for some time but has been "unable" to muscle up the willpower. I'm hoping that she will now be ready to end it completely and work on a reconciliation with me, but I don't know for sure if that will happen. It will be interesting to see what develops after she gets back Tuesday evening.
I do know that I'm not going to force an R talk. We'll just take things as they come.
The LORD is near to all who call on him, to all who call on him in truth." (Psalm 145:18)
