ND, Yes, there are quite a few mlcers that jump right into a living arrangement w/the op. They tend to have them waiting in the wings and have little or no thought about living together.
ND, please do not even think of competing w/the ow. The mlcer generally affairs down and that means she's beneath you in many ways. Keep telling yourself that you are the prize. After all, you are!
As for sending him a postcard...I would definitely send one to him just as you would a friend. Enjoy your time away and please get some much needed rest and leave the mlc monster at home. This is your time away to do something fun and exciting for YOU!
Enjoy your holiday!
Sit quietly, the answers will reveal themselves when you least expect them to. The past is gone, the present is a gift and you need to focus on today, allow the future to reveal itself when it is ready.
