Alcohol is a depressant and can do wacky things with ADD/Anxiety meds. For the weekend, can you find a replacement?

I think you calling puts things in your court. You get just a tad of control over your emotions/the events occuring.

When I was ready to leave & divorce in the past, if she asked me for a date, I'd be happy because it tells me that she sees me in a good light despite all the stuff going on.

Now, that doesn't mean I'd agree. The only way to know is to try. MWD reminds us that when you get too close and you hit a nerve, you back off. You aren't getting close enough to hit a cell phone wave, so I don't think you have to worry. Play it cool and if he says no, tell him you hope he'll reconsider one day because you think your R could be much happier than it was.cool (or whatever).

Did you decide if you're going to make the call to mom to try to get support?
