Wow. Ok, 2 weeks to prepare... you can do this!!!!
How?... I'll let the more experienced ones give you good advice. I have some ideas though:
- You have to GAL even more. - Have back up plans, places to go, people to see if you need to get out of the house. - If you feel yourself getting upset, smile, say you have plans and leave. - Do more 180's. - Have boundaries. Separate bedrooms, separate meals, etc. - Treat him like a roommate. - Keep a bill ledger, post it on the fridge of who paid what, when, how much. - Buy some books, join Netflix.... have some things that you can turn to immediately to "escape" if you need to inside the house. - Actively work on the house, work towards the goal of selling it. - Act "as if" you've moved on, are carefree, happy. - Look good but don't over do it (ie put on makeup to paint the house). - Start working out if you're not already - Don't ask him about his day, ask for his help around the house, etc. He's a roommate.
I'm sure others will have more ideas or correct any of mine if they are bad. Post here when you need to vent, cry, etc. You can do it!
