I'm both getting excited and irritated at the same time. NC is hard because it is the exact opposite of what I've done in the past. But it's working, and that's exciting.
Just got a text: "You alive?" I'm tempted to squeal.
Cautious I had to LOL when I read this. That made my day.
I could only dream of getting that response from my XW.
I will probably never be at that stage post-divorce so I have no clue how I would respond. Might do the same thing you did. Maybe relish in it. We are human after all.
Like you, journeling has also helped me. I dont know why but putting in on type has always helped me to deal with things. Thats probably why my posts are so long winded.
It will be interesting for me to read my journal years from now and see what emotions it brings. Dealing with the hardest part of your life you almost have to record it somehow. I may even delete it as a final detachment but right now I value it as a reminder of a hard learned lesson.
