Brian the snail... Ohh some times I wish I could step on those snails and listen to the cracking sound they make... Dont worry, not your snail. It's all the same, it never changes :focus on you, patience, let him come back to you...

Concetrate on your college project!!

PS Got the package!!! Thanks!

[AliSuddenly]

Oh good!!! So it arrived on time then. Wow, that was faster than they said. I IM'd you just now to see if you had got it. So I've been waiting for him to "come back to me" for 18 months now and I am happy to wait.... as long as he IS coming back !!!!? Everyone keeps telling me that he is. I'll believe it when I see it...

I'm telling you, MI5 and the CIA should use this as a form of torture. More effective than water boarding. I'm ready to confess to 9.11, the madrid bombings and the bubonic plague right about now.

I am making my sculpture tommorow! After lots of planning and money spent I am at the build stage..

Hi Ali, hope the college work is coming together. It sounds wonderful,what % will the final project count towards the degree?

So I've been waiting for him to "come back to me" for 18 months now and I am happy to wait.... as long as he IS coming back !!!!? Everyone keeps telling me that he is.

Ah if we could answer the "if he is" we would all be millionaires.
Arn't we strange creatures, whilst he was with Helen you were prepared to wait ad infinitum,now he's not, a few days is killing you-hmmmm
It's as if the battle was the splitting up,subconciously maybe that it was the winning of that goal that kept you patient. Now you feel you have won that battle and you want the prize.

So did you call re house and any arrangements for band night made?
Maybe make that call to the coach,don't spoil the ship for a ha'peth of tar.
Good luck.

Hang in there, baby!

Like I said before, now the REALLY hard part begins.

Yep, I agree patients is the key. Maybe focus on taking one brick out of his wall at a time. We all have learned plowing through a brick wall just doesn't work.

Brian the snail, probably has much more to think about now more than ever.

[TRUSTING]

Your doing wonderfully....

[mishka422]

I find myself getting so excited to see your final project Ali! I hope you aren't having a hard time concentrating on it while your ex is stewing and processing. You're doing GREAT!

[MichelleLT]

I remember feeling that way when STBXH told me he was going to break up with OW, the waiting was torture. And then when he did call to see me I was so impatient to see him. But we all know how that went...he went back to her less than a month later.

Focus on school and let him sort himself out. Time and space is the greatest thing you can give to him right now, and by giving him that you ARE doing something helpful.

[AliSuddenly]

Thanks everyone! Wow, feel like this is a team event, ha! Nice to know people are rooting for me still.. it IS hard waiting Michelle, you are right. I'm like, whats stopping you NOW then!?

I dont think he will get back with her. He has broken up with several gf's of 6 months- 2 1/2 years since he was 15 and NEVER looked back. Only with me, but then I was 9 years and BF's for 13 so...

He emailed me a few times today chatty and asking about college progress (I am knackered !!!) and said he thinks its all going to look amazing when finished. All the third year work is supposed to count, but they get 10 mins to look through your sketchbooks, so really, the show is up to 80% of the final mark and my disseration is 20%. So lots of pressure!

I'm totally concentrating on it, in fact, I havent thought about him really and just dashed off emails back to him. He said he will phone me in a bit. Guess I'm kinda hoping for him to mention band night, as he probably STILL needs to cover of others around. I dont feel as though I can do the inviting though.
