Maybe not too complicated to understand

[Michael Mc C]

Good morning all. I remember being in this exact same place back in late October. OM is "gone", W is miserable and shows no emotion towards anyone - unless contempt is an emotion, I get lots of that.

I recall that in the 4 weeks OM was gone the last time W was able to suck me back in and each time I got close to her she'd remind me that she wanted the D and would then say she had to move out (I think we had that conversation 4 times during that month).

I am working damn hard on the loving detachment right now. I have hopefully learned from my mistakes in the past. With Christmas right around the corner I know it's going to be really difficult to keep my head straight and to remain focused on me and the kids. I have the entire week off next week but, unlike the fateful week of Thanksgiving, W is now working and therefore we will NOT be on top of each other all week.

Which is too bad in a way because that week we had together was a lot of fun - just a bit premature.
