And I talked to the guy a little bit about the "ex" situation - and you start getting questions about your situation, and I'm not sure how ready I was to be "cool" with it all.

And maybe this is why I've been wigging out today, not just that it's my "non"-anniversary, but this weird "who the &*(@ am I?" experience.

OK, so someone hit me with the 2x4 and tell me, you KNOW you're not ready for this, because you ALREADY TRIED IT dumba$$. And it's true, I know I like TM too much, and I know I'm not really over XW although I'd like to be, and I know I'm not the kind of guy that can take all that in stride. And the whole ambiguous this-isn't-a-relationship-but-apparently-it-is is not something I've ever done well.
