Next question. I had my therapy last night. He did not get my emailed letter to my wife because he doesn't check his email at the office. Oh well he was doing that last night. His question to me again was am I looking to start dating. Now a few weeks back I did fill out a profile on match.com, however never signed up. Same with another free site. I will admit I look from time to time but don't feel ready. I don't know if my W is still with the om or not. Over the summer she wondered why I did not start looking to date someone else. Well now it is 7 months since our separation and I am starting to think maybe I should. Maybe her finding out I was out with someone else might make her think. Like the beginning letter in DR where the wife was out dancing with other men and made her husband rethink. I am not looking for sex maybe just someone to sit and talk with other then my guy friends or married women friends(of which I only have one). All other women I know are in there early 20's and they are too young and just want to drink and party. I am not looking for validation here. Just other peoples opinions. I guess I need to know what is the timeline how do you know when it is time to do this.
I know this is weird. Last night when my therapist asked me this question I told him I can still see a future with my wife in my head. I can see us in couples therapy doing an exercise from Harville Hendrixs couples book.
Confused as usual. Amazing 37 years old two kids and life can still make you feel like your 14 again.
Thanks in advance to whomever answers.
I told my therapist last night I am very thankful for stumbling upon Michelle's book as well as this community page. Just wish I new about it earlier over the summer I would not have pursued as much as I did.
