And that I still need space
(She usually tries to involve me in emotionally taxing hour-long conversations where she’s taking off her anger)
This made her feel hurt that I don’t trust her (and it’s true)
She said “if it’s that bad for you, don’t come back”
And I said okay [emoji846]
I’ll stay in my dad's house, but I would prefer it if she didn’t come here
She said I have a job so I can’t come there anyway
I said that’s great!
So the plan was settled
I’d stay in my dad's house till my therapy gets done.
(Maybe a few months?)
Then I can start focusing on my career.
Till then, maybe I’ll do an online course.

Good for you— it sounds like being around her creates an unhealthy environment. I don’t know the whole backstory obviously, but it seems like you have done what is best for you. Kudos
