Thank you ladies for your thoughts and prayers.

I will not be making any decisions until I am in a better place to do so.

Snodderly's words hurt, not because they were unkind, but because they were true. xSO has done nothing to indicate that he is there for me. I am finding that from a few of my "old friends".

MizJ - I like your suggestion of a vaction time where I try not to think about the relationship (or whatever it is this thing would be called) for awhile. It really isn't that I am focussing on it now. Of course, I do on this Board but really, he is not my main focus. It is just his absence is so noticable right now - like losing an arm. You notice when it is not there! It changes the rest of your life.

Thanks again.
