You pointed out 'distancing' - yeah, I'm trying to work on that psychologically right now. Because of our living proximity, physical distance is pretty tough, but I've been getting better at accepting the fact that I cannot do much to help, save, control, guide, influence.... my W. She has to do it on her own.
The last time she flipped back to the OM, I used some of that "distance" to deal with getting kicked in the teeth again. I managed to tell her that she had to guide her own life, but did add that even though I respected her freedom, I couldn't agree with her choice.
Now I don't know what the hell she's thinking, and I'm trying not to get worked up about it.
I feel decent - she's recognized my support and has even thanked me for it. That's not to say that I don't fantasize about having the OM drawn and quartered. But she is a big girl, as screwed up as her emotions are right now, and she has to deal with her life as she sees fit.
Now just wait until tomorrow, when all of this progress gets sucked up in a cyclone and shot down to hell.
