In no way do I consider myself damaged goods! In fact, I feel new and improved. I've only dipped my toe into the dating pool, but I'm sure that soon enough I'll be swimming, playing, and having a grand time.
I know this is hard, I've experienced it, but once you've let it go and enjoy life again (focusing on yourself, not distracting yourself), you'll be ready to date and will probably enjoy it as well.

Not to get too far off track, but did you (IR) ever hear anything more from kikisum? She popped in for a second and then disappeared. I'd hoped she give a little update.
Hi OF, no I didn't hear anything more from kikisum either. I'm hoping she's doing, still together with her family and that's why she doesn't need to be here
Things are ok in IR's world. As much as I've said in the past that I don't need the world to validate me it feels good to get some attention in the dating world lately. I haven't started it full blown yet- I don't even know why? It's as-if I'm waiting for something...perhaps the finality of the D process. Other than that life is what it is. I sometimes feel like I've fallen hard, and I have financially and emotionally, but true to my Capricorn nature I'm rising to the challenge! Even the best fall down sometimes. The ColdPlay song sums it up nicely for me:
I used to rule the world Seas would rise when I gave the word Now in the morning I sleep alone Sweep the streets I used to own I used to roll the dice Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes ...
