I decided to test the waters a little last night. For the first time in a while, I contacted the W about something other than a necessity. I asked her if she still wanted to play that game. She replied back, yes but later, after D goes to bed

This is was the LBSs continue to make mistakes.
You "test" the waters. That comes off needy and clingy
Please do not make this mistake again. An old poster here(Coach) once said:
How do you get a cat to play with you?

You can't case it, it will run away.
You have to spark its interest. Being mysterious will spark their interest.

It was a wake up call for me. She may be nice to me, but she is still gone. I need to move on

Moving on does not mean giving up. Moving on is self love. It helps us to be a better person. If we can't love ourself how can we give love to another?

The OW does make me happy, why is that such a bad idea?

Honestly, I don't think you're emotionally ready to date OW.
That's not fair to your healing process and it's not fair to OW.

OUtdoor activities coming soon, great! Get back into shape, start dressing nicer, smell good do different things.

The following statement put me in the right mind set for detaching.
"Why would you want to be with someone who doesn't want to be with you?"
Think about that the often.
Don't we deserve better than what were experiencing now?


Enjoy the live music, it's one of my interests too.
