NOT GOOD! She is a WAW....ouch! Only 4 months....there is no way I am getting into that.... So onwards we go...Mike I think I am getting ready to join your club. Anyhoo..I have to congratulate myself because I am pretty sure that she wanted to get to know me ALOT more. In spite of little johnny's current condition i stayed away....I wonder if that is normal???
I never said this to a group of people but I wish everyone a heartfelt HAPPY New Year. I really mean that. For most of us, 2008 has not been a stellar year, however, I sincerely hope that all of us get a litttle happiness in 2009 regardless of your goals.
XW called to wish my a happy new year at 15:00 yesterday. She seemed a little nostalgic....started complaining about her father blah blah blah....just like old times. I guess her new boyfriend is not a good listener. She called D8 who seemed surprised since it was too early....so it was not a D8 initiated call. Went out for a drink with another lady (no initials yet). Pretty nice but I have a feeling that getting into another relationship is not going to be easy. Anyway, she seemed to enjoy our time together because she called to tell me and sent an e-mail...this from a woman who has alot going for her. Not sure about the long term viability though. We shall see. I think I will meet anothe one today....in case you guys have not noticed, I joined an online dating thing. Kicjked in the new year with family...the way it should be i guess. D8 called at 12:05 and unfortunatelly, she was holding back tears....i will try to stay positive and attribute it to the fact that it was late. i have to admit that a little anger crept up in me....anger at what? Anger at the selfishness exhibited by some people and how this whole mess in 2008 could have been avoided. But that is water under the bridge and we need to move on.....
New Year's resolutions; in no particular order
1) Stay positive and don't sweat the small stuff 2) Get fit 3) Maximize my time with D8 4) Concentrate a little more on my family and friends and don't take them or anyone else for granted. 5) land a job that I am happy to jump out of bed and go to.... 6) learn to love again
Yahoo. It seemed like a lower stress alternative to match.
Don't know if any of you other folks have run into this one, but, I find my old self trying to rear its' ugly head and pull me back into old relationship patterns when there is no relationship there yet. Don't know if that makes sense. Let's just say I find myself checking my dam*ned phone all day when I don't hear from NG. Now, mostly I force myself to not act the way I feel, but, it doesn't ALWAYS work out that way.
Truth is, she doesn't owe me anything and I don't owe her anything and if we don't talk for a week, well, it isn't as if we're married Right?
Glad you are jumping back in the pool, John. Hope you find someone wonderful who will live up to your deserving self...
I am sure it is not easy I don't even want to think about it yet but I would imagine a dating service would help to find out "what's out there"--the bar scene wouldn't do it for me!

hey John..I think you're correct in assuming she enjoyed the meeting..if not then you would have never heard from her again..
just take things slow John..have fun..enjoy meeting these new ladies..and just get used to dating again..I'm finding that it continues to get easier for me the more that I meet..

I could understand that...remember the Holy Grail..LOL..once you found it you sure don't want to misplace it..show her confident..don't let her know you may be wondering about her all day..
