I actually liked being around my friends family. It was warm and friendly. I realize that I miss that, for many years. I had 'built' a 'family' like that with friends and their families. I think that was what attracted STBX to me.
I've been stuck doing "C" code for the last year for embedded dsp faxing, and of course, crappy Windows OS. Someday I may get back to the joy of C# programming.
My AA sponsor said to go get the lyrics from The Eagles song "Get Over it". So here they are....
I turn on the tube and what do I see A whole lotta people cryin' "Don't blame me" They point their crooked little fingers at everybody else Spend all their time feelin' sorry for themselves Victim of this, victim of that Your momma's too thin; your daddy's too fat
Get over it Get over it All this whinin' and cryin' and pitchin' a fit Get over it, get over it
You say you haven't been the same since you had your little crash But you might feel better if I gave you some cash The more I think about it, Old Billy was right Let's kill all the lawyers, kill 'em tonight You don't want to work, you want to live like a king But the big, bad world doesn't owe you a thing
Get over it Get over it If you don't want to play, then you might as well split Get over it, Get over it
It's like going to confession every time I hear you speak You're makin' the most of your losin' streak Some call it sick, but I call it weak
You drag it around like a ball and chain You wallow in the guilt; you wallow in the pain You wave it like a flag, you wear it like a crown Got your mind in the gutter, bringin' everybody down Complain about the present and blame it on the past I'd like to find your inner child and kick its little ass
Get over it Get over it All this bitchin' and moanin' and pitchin' a fit Get over it, get over it
Get over it Get over it It's gotta stop sometime, so why don't you quit Get over it, get over it
D14 took our beagle to stay overnight at her moms condo. Dropping them off, OM's truck was there. I need to get used to it and stop the drama of 'poor me'.
I just realized that I haven't actually 'seen' STBX in about 3 weeks or so. She hasn't come to the door during her rare pickups of D14. And we don't talk on the phone very often. I guess this is what 'moving on' looks like.
You will get used to it with time. Heck, whenever my X stops by my work or home, I can smell her before I see her. Lately I think she has become a test subject for womens perfume. I worry about the kids olfactory system when they drive with her.

How would you characterize that kind of behavior? Another MLC trait?
It may be some sort of MLC or maybe that is the person she always wanted to be - high class look. I do know that I am not attracted one bit to the constant painting of toenails, fancy shoes and intense perfume. I'm looking for more of the Joni Mitchell type outdoorsy girl (minus the hair on the legs/underarms and with conservative leaning views).
