Hey Sara, its so good to see you back! What happend with the ex? Last I saw he was begging to come back and you were trying to date someone else. I thought "Good for her, she finally saw the light that this guy just isnt right for her and she is moving on." It is a process. We grieve, we get angry, we grieve again. I am so glad to hear you are out and about getting a life. You know, I am still right across the river from you if you want a shoulder to cry on or a friend to go out with. I have actually met up with a few differnt women who have been through the same thing that I am going through and it helped me so much to know I could vent to someone who related.

Sara, this is your time right now. It takes as long as it takes. A really good friend of mine told me "Broken, your F'ed up H ran off to the first person that came along. He never did any of the work to truly find himself. You are not making that same mistake. You are working at finding out what makes you tick and what makes you happy. This is your time of self discovery. And if you do this right (and trust me, we are) then this will be the only time in your life that you are single and dating. Why not have some fun with it? Look at this as an opportunity." You know what Sara, she was right. Why try and run into another relationship! This is about me finding me and healing completely. My stupid H is not doing anything to heal himself, he is still trying to medicate with outside stimulas. When I am ready (not quite yet) I will go out and date and try to have fun with it. Nothing serious. When it is suppose to happen it will. Dont beat yourself up because you are still grieveing......you are still healing and will emerge from this a more whole and as a stronger person than ever before.

Missed you and glad you came back! The image of your Ex wearing your T-shirts still cracks me up.
