A new thread, a new outlook.....

[Can it work]

Sandi

Thanks for your input and support as ever. I know exactly what you mean about feeling lonely a lot. Unfortunately that's just the way it is sometimes. To be honest my GAL efforts are really starting to bear fruit. I've arranged a pizza night on Thursday with some of my friends and a night out on Sunday since we all have Easter Monday off work. I have Wee Man tonight and tomorrow night but I still have a friend coming past to watch a DVD after Wee Man goes to bed. I'm still very much of the opinion that I'd still really like to have my W around to do these things with me though. It would seem inappropriate to snuggle up on the couch with my friends!!

That's what I really miss. I've always been a cuddly kinda guy and was always in to the physical side of affection. I'm not talking about just sex but all the other physical things that came with being in a happy relationship. The only cuddles I get now are from Wee Man. As fantastic as they are, I still long to hold my W every time I see her. I still see her as the most beautiful woman in the world and I hope and pray for her to return to me.

I was heartbroken yesterday for a young guy at my work. I was briefly talking with him and he said that his relationship with his fiance had broken down. They too have a wee one. A wee girl this time though about the same age as Wee Man. The difference with his R is that his fiance is not from the same place as us and is thinking of moving back to her family. I couldn't bear that. Anyway, I quickly got my DB hat on and asked him if he still wanted his R to work. When he said yes I started going through strategies with him. I never mentioned MWD or the books until I find out his opinion on self help books. There are people who would discount information because they don't agree with the source. Right now though, he just thinks he's getting advice from a co-worker who's been there. If he asks for more, I'll probably lend him my copy of DR. I hate to see people go down this road and want to do anything I can to help.

Anyhoo, back to work for me I'm afraid.

Keep smiling
