You sound terrific, at peace with STBX and hopeful with new guy. Sorry he cancelled, but he sounds like a good guy, and sometimes good guys stay connected with their pasts, huh!!.
I'm really glad things are looking up for you. Please keep us posted.
nic....WOW...I LOVE IT AND YOU TOO. WTG. You know, I will bet you a quarter that one day we will both wonder why we hung on so long. You see, there ARE other good people out there and we WILL be loved again and there ARE good listeners out there.
I will be in Lake Placid...next week...will you and ISLH be close to there?
Take your time with this gent, and, now for a bit of 'attraction BS'. Don't get overzealous and pursue...do what you said and use your DB stuff like patience, etc. I concur with ISLH....your H is gonna kick himself when his present thing burns out.
HUGS. Take your time..take care of yourself....don't rush things. Frank

So good to hear that not only are you alright but you are doing fabulously. Sorry your date got cancelled but it does seem he was honest with you about the reason so that HAS to be a good thing.

Yay. Just Yay. You made it through this and it sounds like a new beginning is on the way for you. I am so pleased for you. I'm glad you posted the update because it shows others you CAN actually make a new life out of this. Hugs and love!
Most of us really marry only once. First love endures, even unto our dying day. And we never really divorce.
Sorry the date was cancelled but it seems you are handling it well and not letting it get you down.
Yes, patience is the key and if there is an X involved, well, you know the games that will follow. So, start off as friends with no expectations and what will be, will be.
I know you like this guy but it doesn't mean he's the only one out there it case it doesn't work out. Who knows, his W may have caught wind of you and now she's jealous. And so she should be because you are a good catch.
You go girl!
FIB...Nic and I are closer to New York than we are to Lake Placid. Never been to Lake Placid but I hear it is beautiful.
Hugs, ISLH

just checking in on you and it is wonderful to find you so happy! You have worked so hard for this. You know to expect ups and downs and I truly believe that you will be very happy in your nexy R. You have learned how to be YOU and find happiness in yourself- something your H has not learned. You do realize that you will face your H one day with him telling you he really screwed up and you will just smile and say that his screw up was the best thing that ever happened to you. You are so strong and so beautiful. Such an inspiration to everyone on this board.
Love, Lisa
