Time to start a new thread. For those who are curious, things are going ok. I quit smoking 2 days ago (started when separation started) and I have not a craving at all! I am able to quit cold turkey as I have done it before years ago.
I haven't begun exercising yet as time constraints and getting my lungs back into shape are obstacles, but plan to start next week when I have more time.
I chose the title of this thread as an homage to Boomtown Rats. Although it may not be appropriate due to the recent school shootings, it does give me insight to possible MLC behavior. In the song the police questioned the shooter as to why she shot her classmates, to which she replied "I don't like Mondays."
Basically when we are all crying "why" to something that has gone wrong in our lives, there might not really be a reason why, at least as far as the WAS goes. I think I have gotten past the stage of wondering why and just accepting it.
XW now has OM on her Facebook and I have noticed it does not bother me as much anymore. She is still trying to friend me, but I am not going to totally pretend that everything is ok. I am friendly to her and that is about it and I am ok with that.
Today I actually thought of myself dating another person and was strangely ok with it. I will still give myself time though to make sure that I have healed more, but I am doing pretty good so far.
Anyway I better get back to work. Hope you all are doing well. Thanks for the support!
