[Lonely in SLC]

So, where do we stand today. I am currently living with my parents. We are working on the Divorce without lawyers. It has gone smoother than I expected. I dare say that we are "almost" friends. She has asked for full physical custody and joint legal custody. She is a great mother and lets me take the kids whenever I want, which has been every weekend.

This is the part that is most frustrating and gives me hope. She believes that our marriage is dead. She is very superstitious. She claims that the best way for us to ever get back together is as follows.

1. Divorce
2. She needs time to heal and find herself.
a. She does not know how long this will take, maybe a year or longer.
3. Begin from scratch
a. As friends
b. Later as girlfriend/boyfriend
c. Get married again

But nothing is guaranteed.

We are friends, will go to lunch maybe once a week, and even went to a movie together about a week ago. We also went to the movies last Friday as a family and saw X-men.

The major problem with all of this, I have such a hard time being with her and not doing one of the following...
1. Cry
2. Try to seduce her....I know, I am a man
3. Try to talk to out of divorce and about our Relationship
