For those with a WAS...How do you cope?

[WalkingMan]

I know I haven't gone more than a week without contact with my XW, but this is because of financial reasons. I would say be patient and stick with your guns. Don't be discouraged. I remember when I was a kid, there was a stray kitten that would come around and always run away when I approached her. I would leave food out for her and my scent would remain on it. Every day, I would sit outside and watch her eat and she eventually came right up to me. At some point she let me pet her. The point is that you need to be patient and let him come to you.

NOthing is going to happen right away and I know it's hard, but you have to be patient and work on you! Like they always say on here, time is your ally. Be strong and learn to love yourself and who you can become. Being happy is often a choice, and happy people are attractive.

Hang in there!
