This time Trip walked out. I thought I was getting somewhere, well not me, but they were getting somewhere. He confessed his affair and then said it wasn't working and left. I really get the feeling that they don’t need me there, they kind of do their own thing, and then I try to insert something and it will just confuse them and they will go back to their business. It was suggested to me that I need to take a side, but that is somewhat counter to how I would really mediate a situation. I would think that I am suppose to meet moth people in the middle and try not to offend anyone. Why would reconciliation come form taking a side, I would think that the other person would just become offended and storm out. I really do feel like its understanding of my comments is minimal, aside from hello and yes. Most of the comments I make get shrugged off, this makes me feel like it doesn’t matter if I am there or not, all I have to do insert a yes or no somewhere to resolve the game. It is almost like I mess up the flow when I try to step in, but it is obvious that I am suppose to do something to resolve this situation. I don’t know what to do to get them to reconcile.
