See my other post for our situation.
Well we went to dinner last night. We had to meet to sort the new pictures of our daughter. Dinner was nice, I made sure to act happy and really listen.
We had small talk and then she brought up our R. I sent her flowers to her work the day before, with a get well card. She went to the ER 2 days before because of a kidney stone. Card just said, "I hope you feel better soon, Always #$#%&^*"
She ask me to not do that anymore, and also ask me not to call her "babe" or "sweety" on the phone anymore.
She said that if I can't move on, then she will not be able to move on. And she said if I continue down this path of hope, that maybe we shouldn't meet for dinner anymore.
I just told her I sent the flowers because I wanted to, I said in the past I would not have, but in the past I just assumed you knew I was thinking and cared about you. I was wrong to assume that, and I will know longer assume anything. I will let my actions speak for me.
Maybe I am reading in to her comments above to much. She has told me that I have ignored her for the past several years. Now it seems she wants me to just move on to sort of confirm her assumptions that I abandoned her. I am not willing to do this.
Any thoughts!
By the way, we never did sort the pictures. She forgot to bring scissors to cut them.

cz0 - Please try and keep all your posts in the same thread. Creating multiple threads makes it too hard to follow your situation. Thanks!

How does she expect you to move on if she's having dinner with you?
And it's great if she can't move on just because you can't move on. You don't want her to move on.
