[quote=Anonymous]So OP, your words had an effect on her. Good. Now you have to give it time, for the relationship to change and for her to act better and you're not doing that. You're rushing to have the change happen - now. Because you want it now. You want things to be good between you. Not happening right away. It takes time. You did the right thing, initially. You shouldn't regret any of it. What will be the eventual new normal? Nothing's certain but you live with it. Suggestions for seeing her: Don't make the visit about talking, have an activity. Going to a movie would be ideal. Or something active. Meet on neutral turf. Have short visits. Have the ability to leave, at any time if she creates a scene - have your own wheels and have control or your schedule. We are all assuming she's not suffering from Alzheimers or a disease she can not control.[/quote]
