Feeling much better today. I spent my drive home last night thinking about all the things I'll do when I have time to myself and/or the positives of being on my own. By the time I got home I had my head in the right place and was able to be really positive. I told W that I that I had a good day and actually meant it. It seemed to suprise her.
Oh yeah - They get confused when you tell them all the fun stuff you're doing. I think that's when they realize that they're missing out on something. It is, of course, good for your own mental and emotional health to have fun and get out to do things.
Give it a few weeks - It's kind of nice to be on your own. I realize that sounds strange, but I enjoy the time to myself.
