Separated, new baby, but still hopeful

[P17]

P17, I can now picture you as Dr. Cox!! He is funny but luckily has become nicer in recent seasons of Scrubs.

Just the beard ... just the beard

As for your W thinking you have a special lady: part of her may feel relieved (to alleviate guilt) but come on, the other part is threatened!!

Not sure. Sometimes I think she is, sometimes I don't think she cares. It doesn't really matter anymore though.

She is human, right?

That is in question ...

Even when I have ended a relationship with a boyfriend, it hurt my ego to learn he had started dating. Haven't you felt the same?

I have. And girl friends I have spoken to have also said that while they may not want their men back, they don't want them dating either. PDT said the exact same.

BUt you are GAL and the side effect is causing her to wonder what you are up to. (which is goooood!)

I don't know if that is true with her. She just seems to uninterested most of the time.

Just don't expect her to drop her relationship for you so soon. Remember that it takes 6 months (on average) for most affairs to end. If you expect her to end her "relationship" in 1-2 month's time, I think you will be disappointed.Be realistic instead.

I know. I am being too impatient. Again, hopefully the NC will help with that. Maybe my entire mental energy will no longer be focused on her!

What do you mean about picking up singing? Fun karaoke or singing lessons? Can you carry a tune? What are you singing? :-)

No, what I meant was that when she came in I was signing merrily away to myself and dancing around (dance like nobody is watching? :)) which is something I would never have done before. I was Mr Boring, Mr Serious and Mr PayTheBills.
