Sounds like a good day. The NC seems to really help out alot with the smoothing out the ups and downs. I hate feeling like my world is destroyed because I just talked to her.
In other news, I talked to the dentist today and looks like I get to be a 33 y/o man with braces...The good news is that shes in the family and they are only costing me $500. Have to wear them for 6 months too...

Shared this on my thread Thorn but my new PMA is: " I don't have time for this. I have work to do" and then the added jewel of "let go.let go. let go" (think I found it by wound fool) Just not having time for anxiety or thoughts of WAW. Continuing instead on the bloody open heart surgery of self change. Battle on man.

Don't give up when you still have something to give. Nothing is really over until the moment you stop trying.
Just met with MC. We talked a lot about codependency and establishing healthy relationships outside of the primary relationship. He's challenging me to get out more with friends.
I also told him about texts from WAW. He thinks she's knocking on the door and testing the waters. He agreed that I need to not be selfish and pursue her. By giving her space and time, I am respecting her decision to break up. It's actually a loving thing to let her be right now.
Not easy to do, but it made me feel better that I am respecting her wish right now.
He predicts she'll reach out again and suggested I test the waters a little bit too. Not pursuing, but staying friendly and eventually sending her a text or email.
Everything except that last sentence to the second-to-last paragraph! Don't you dare do that part Thorn LOL! Great to hear you're hanging in there!
