Talked w/ C yesterday. Told her I feel stuck. She said that is to be expected under my circumstances where there is a high level of ambiguity and H is so indirect and not forthcoming. She said a sitch like mine is unusual in her exp - no active conflict or process for resolution or change. We really are not moving in any direction, just this limbo state and I am in the dark about what is going on w/ H. As we were talking, I was thinking that this seems normal to me, but only b/c I see that there are others in DB mode with this same experience. But, it seems that we are the exception and not the rule.

You are right about that - it's one of my frustrations that I can't get into a more positive mindset. I feel like I am feeding my own unhappiness, but I don't have enough strength to push it away. I need a Wonder Woman amulet or something. . . .

I don't have a real active social life, but I am working on it. I do get out to spend time with friends - meet for lunch or movies, that kind of thing. I have made a couple of new friends, too. My friends are kind of spread around geographically, so it's not a quick/simple thing to get together.
I'm not very well-rounded in the hobby category. It's something that I'm missing and I'm trying to find a creative outlet that will hold my attention and be something that I can do easily and as an "everyday" activity. A lot of the things I enjoy doing are "events" - go to see a play, travel to Montreal or Boston for an art exhibit, that kind of thing. I used to lose myself in a good book, but that holds less interest for me now. . . .
