DbD I am glad you are going to move forward with your life.
Please remember that flirting is harmless. And treat it as such. Concentrate on your running, school and children. But most importantly concentrate on yourself.
Make the second half of your life a billion times better than the first.
Thanks so much june and cutter.
Cutter, I do see flirting as harmless and at another time I'd find it fun. But I left out that he was persistent even after giving him the signals I wasn't interested. I'm just spent and can only handle exchanging short, polite conversation. This sitch has me irritable and I don't want to be rude to anyone. I'm fighting hard not to feel bitter. Last night while STBX was dropping off the kids I heard his voice affectionate to the kids... the way he used to be to me and it felt like daggers.
But I won't let STBX ruin me. He's only one person and I have many lovable and loving people in my life that value me and love me back. Why the he!! should his opinion or actions define me. His value system is worthless. I've got to remember that.
My second half of my life WILL be billions of times better than the first!! Going to surround myself with the people who love me for the rest of this week. I'm going for some pampering at the salon tomorrow. I'll leave feeling fabulous after.
