CL, I have a hard time picturing my self single/divorced/alone. I'm trying to be comfortable with that image, so that I can mentally move on, but right now it eludes me. Thanks again-its nice to know I'm not alone!
KJ, I understand wanting to hold onto people, things, or identities we have of ourselves. I'm a person who likes security and to hold onto things, to create an illusion of security. This ordeal is teaching me to not hold onto things so tightly, and to be more flexible, less judgmental, less clingy, and more self-reliant, and it will do the same for you in your own way.
I'm not ready to let go of the house and neighborhood I've lived in for 15 years. I was bound and determined to not ever be a D guy. I still have embarrassment thinking that I could be that soon.
This is going to be an emotional weekend for you, but there is a resilience that shows in your posts. Provide yourself with whatever you feel like you need, whether it's structure, connection, or a box of kleenex and a long crying episode.
