Light and funny gossip about what friends are up to (another superficial topic) seems realistic within the first month. At some early point as anger started to subsde I started getting platonic hugs. But that was months ago and it has never progressed since. Still, it might be a goal towards positivity in general for you.


My last comment about this is H4L and LR's threads have some good insight on how once anything gets positive, negative withdrawal seems to follow. It's one step forwards, two steps back no matter what it seems like. I'm not as far as they are and may never get there, but that has seemed true for my sitch as well.
