Got some bad news on email this morning from a bud in Iraq. He got wounded, is being sent home and his wife is leaving him. What a bitch! So there is always someone out there who has it worse I guess.

Saw the wife in the gym this morning. She was friendly but not overly friendly. I don't get the extreme change in demeanor. One minute hot, one minute cold. It is really difficult to detach at this moment based on events of the past few days. I guess I need to focus harder.

Maybe I'm just projecting from my own sitch... Could it be that she is annoyed because she felt that she came on strong (kissing, missing you, hard kissing, receptive post-phone call) and now she is waiting for you to pursue and set up the next date?

John,

I'm really sorry to hear about your friend. It saddens me and angers me when people don't show the proper respect for the brave men and women that are out there defending us (and our way of life) every single day.

Oh, I should have refrained from my comment. I am sorry about your friend and I hope that he heals both physically and emotionally from his situation. Thanks for the wake up, Puppy.

Signed,
Idiot

Could be... I already set up the next date. We are supposed to be going to lunch tomorrow. We'll see what happens. Part of me thinks that because she had my daughter this weekend she doesn't feel like she needs to be around me necessarily? I don't know. I could speculate all day. I'd rather be detached like I was at the middle of last week. I can't take being jerked around much longer. Even though I'm working out like a mad SOB I feel like the sitch is starting to affect my mental well-being. Bottom line--she either needs to make the moves to come back home which I want to say she is or she needs to not lead me on. We'll see, more later.

Not sure how I changed views when I replyed last time. Any ideas how to get it back the way it was?

I feel like I did when this first started(other than the blubbering). I've got that helpless feeling and have been trying the fast forward technique to get past it. Very difficult to process all that has happened and apply myself accordingly. I woke up at 4 am this weekend both Sat and Sun. Ugh--this is going to be a long day.

This is why it's so important to do so. So you maintain a middle-course regardless of the extremes of local weather.

Well, no contact today so far from the wife and it looks like I'm going to have to cancel our lunch date tomorrow due to work obligations. It seems like Mondays are the next worst day after the weekends as I have to constantly readjust my emotions. Don't know if that even makes sense. I really feel like I'm starting all over today for some reason. It is really difficult to maintain that middle course.

How is the possible transfer coming along, I think this will be your defining moment with the R. Until then, middle of the road is hard, no its not, just take the one in the middle.
