Yep, that's right, gotta keep the focus on me, I know.
But it's hard - as we all know.
Does it work for me - well, I don't even know the answer to that straight up.
It sorta does and sorta doesn't.
I think I'm in danger of being impatient. Maybe I've managed to re-establish a 'friendship' with H. He's coming around more frequently again now and calling more regularly on the phone - even when he doesn't need to.
But, he still seems pretty detached from me and there are no signs of anything except a civil relationship.
My best guess is I'm just being impatient in regard to achieving my goals. I should probably be happy with what I've got at the moment - no arguing, spewing, regular contact initiated by him... and just wait for things to warm up between us on the back of consistent change on my part.
Took the kids to a movie last night (Dark Shadows - can't recommend it) and then to obedience training for the dog. So my GAL is still focused around them, but that seems inevitable at the moment. Did meet a divorced Dad last week at a school function who was def holding eye contact for longer that necessary, so.. if I'm ever in a place to make an effort re getting to know someone new, there might be still be a chance for an old hag like me.
