I am GAL-ing or at least trying to. I spend a lot of time with my daughter which is best for her right now because she is fearful now of not having parents. But its been lots of fun stuff like tomorrow we are going to see the nutcracker play with other kids and parents. Someone on here recommeneded "meetup.com" which I checked out and I've signed up for yoga classes, cooking classes and hiking group. None of them start up again tho til January. I'm trying to get out a bit more but we do not have any arrangements which is the part where I am showing him I am supporting him. I've been out for coffee and movies with friends. I don't know what else I can be doing to be GAL-ing. My life is pretty low key and I don't have a ton of friends now (nor did I ever really). My confidence is quite wiped out but I make sure I "look good" and smile and be happy when H is around and also when I am at work and out and about. I've been saving my self pity moments for when I'm alone. No, OW is not going to be there. As far as I know anyway. She is not allowed around my D, we have an agreement about that. So if he wants to at least be with our D on his bday, then she cannot be there. Do you have any other suggestions for GAL-ing that would help boost confidence?
