Her response:

"I haven't seen any of those movies and I would be interested in seeing any of them. I'm up for anything I just want to get out of the house and ha e fun. I worked a bunch this week and need a break! So anything you pick works for me. "

My response:

"Ah OK! one of those movies and dinner it is then.

What else do you like to do for fun? I love the outdoors- mountain biking, hiking etc so when I have time I take off and do that. It's a great stress reliever and catching some fresh air and enjoying the outdoors is nice.

Did you say you were following some kind of a workout routine? I do that 2-3 times a week too. I think a couple of these things have helped me quite a bit but I'm far from healed. Just too much baggage there so it'll take time but I'm ok with it.

Anyway, not to bore you with that stuff but I was just trying to think of things for you to do so you can get a break from work etc!"

So I think she's also just trying to get out of the rut without any major expectations. I hope I'm reading her correctly and if so that's actually pretty good because I don't really have any single friends that would hang out with me and having a woman as my wingman makes it so much easier/better smile

And you guys are right I'm not ready for 'dating' I just want to get out and start enjoying life a bit.

DD said stbxw took her to a baseball game yesterday with some friends...sank my heart immediately but then I said 'who cares R, she'll do what she wants to do I can't stop her even if she wants to f random guys everyday'. So that helped lol

But clearly I'm not 100% detached but this is as far detached I've ever been in the last 5 years. I'll take credit for that much.
