Start making plans of how you can turn that house into your "man cave" and decorate it how you want it instead of how your W prefered it. Take down the frilly stuff and put up manly things. Take pictures of her down and replace them with something else. Make positive plans and don't focus on negative.

Do you have a buddy you could make plans to have over the day of your W's move? Do you like to cook? You could be cooking something for you guys to eat when he gets there....that would give you an opportunity to look busy, upbeat, and somewhat mysterious. Plus, you won't have to suddenly be alone after she leaves.


It is not about what you feel should work in your M. It is about doing the work that gets the right results. Do what works!
