Sashaying thru Seperation III

[mcojh]

I just got baseball pictures delivered to me, as I am the coach. I dod something I have never done before, had a photo of me and the 2 boys taken, as S15 and I are coaching. It turned out really cool. I may scan it and send it to W, the three of us with big smiles should get a reaction.......

It will bring a tear to her eye....hopefully.

If she is just playing me, I wish I knew, and I would get away. I find it hard to believe that she is, as she appears to be pursuing me at times.

MC,
She doesn't know if she is playing you or if she really wants you! This is why you have to be the rock, the alpha male and be unwaivering in your persuit of your happiness!

As I have said before, in a lot of ways, resolution would be good at this point......good or bad.

That is detachment! Doesn't it feel better than obsessing over her every mood change, phone call, etc.

Excellent smiling and waving by the way.

Smiling, Waving and feeling good. Just got home from a walk with the pooch. Both of our tongues were hanging out in the heat. I am not used to the 90 degrees weather.

Last night W stopped to pick S6 up. We were outside, playing with the dog. I had him on the leash because I was taking him for a walk after they left. I got him in the van when she got here. She was chatty and I asked her to hit the garage door button for me. She seemed surprised that I was going for a walk so late (9pm). She seemed like she wanted to extend the convo, but I ended it, and walked away.

While on my walk, S15 called because he forgot his shoes at my place. I finished my walk and brought them to him, but I was quick to drop them off and escape.

This "distancing" thing is hard.

I hope that if the day comes in my sitch where I'm getting some type of reaction / pursuing / chasing from my WAW that I can be a rock like you are being. It must be sooooo tough not to just push for the resolution you seek (in the positive direction of course). I've been called a lot of things, many by my W and unprintable, but patient has never been one of them. I'm learning it and taking to heart much of what you and others have written regarding the importance of detachment. If you look at my thread, you will see that I'm taking some baby steps on that right now, but it is all so new to me that the wounds are still open and bleeding.

Keep it up, you are a role model for some of us.
