Thanks for the advice.
Yesterday was a nice family day. No romance- just fun and laughter. She had fun, we all did.
The kids are going for a walk with her later today and they are asking X if I can come too... Sweet of them, they want the family to be whole again too. I didn't ask about her frequent texts and calls... So difficult, since jealousy is my big stumbling block.
I want to believe that she wants more than an amicable divorce...trying to keep Hope alive. A few weeks ago I said that she seems to have embraced the single life ( yup - shouldn't have said it)... At least she responded that dating is a nightmare. Maybe that means she is just searching for a serious long term relationship ( with someone else)
Women tell me that I could have anyone, I'm a great catch. All I really want is a chance to reconcile. I get my hopes up when she smiles, calls me, makes dinner for all of us... Then my hopes collapse when she is out with her 25 yr old friends doing God knows what....
Im educated, fairly successful, attractive,combat veteran, marathon-er, yet I feel like such a whimp for letting myself mourn and cry over my X so much.
I'll go dark
Let her call me about the kids or approach me when she comes over.
