You are my idol. Even before this, for some reason I just could never bring myself to go to a movie by myself. Will put that on my goal list for the future.

Wife and I are actually still planning to go see it. We still have a drive-in in our area and we have always enjoyed that. The same one we have both gone to since we were children, and used to bring my daughter and her friends to. Pile them all in my old LTD wagon with blankets and pillows....just like when I was a kid with my parents...LOL.

The new X-files movie opened this week and that is also on our list....I am a rabid fan and Scully is looking pretty hot these days.

I would like her to remind me that she wants to go, so I am really going to try to not bring it up.

That's funny. My wife always says why don't you go out and have a beer. You know you will run into somebody...you CAN go out by yourself you know.

Finally did the other night and did run into someone to chat with. Felt good since it had been a while.

Didn't tell her and she didn't even ask where I was...LOL..I figured, screw it, I did it for me not her, right?

Just got back from painting awhile ago.....The guys' afraid of heights, so i got to do all the high stuff. fun.

ndsmhelp......LOL...yeah right. I went because i wanted to see the movie...which, i guess, is the essence of GALing and detaching. My W will be shocked too that i went by myself. She always said that's weird.

Not sure what i want to do tonite. might just stay home and read and watch the TV.

I miss my kids and my W. yes yes..i know..i know........ detach.
but i dont' know if this is different.....like i said before, i miss them. its a normal feeling. its not like i NEED to see them. I WANT to see them..all three of them.
Is there a difference? I think so.....

I hate painting and 3rd rung on the ladder is my limit.....I will never be a house painter, or a steel worker.

Yes, IMO missing, and wanting to see them is different than needing to see them.

With my "unhealthy attachment", I feel need, not want....you know what, I am feeling pretty screwed up today, but actually have the need to laugh about it and at myself.

Is that a good sign, or am I finally going over the edge?

Have you been over to my thread?....need a good laugh?

I am such a screw up.

You are doing a good job, buddy. Keep it up!!

Hey man, I'm right there with ya. I think its grief. We've both lost alot and this is part of the process. Detaching doesn't mean constant happiness. You're right, its different. For me it feels different. I first felt panic when this all started with my wife (how can I go on?!?!) but now it has moved to sorrow (I'm can go on but I am sad for what I have lost).

In a way I think its good that I (we) are experiencing this.

A wound will never heal unless you know you have one.
