Thank you for the responses. I could use some hugs. I feel alone where I am at both physically and mentally. I have a couple of friends in the area but for the most part it was just WH and I.
My friends are tired of hearing me talk about this stuff and although I am trying not to do it as often it still ways on me terribly. I have good days and not so good days. Tomorrow we will be separated for 4 weeks. He seems to have clearly moved on. He is on vacation with his daughter and I haven't heard from in some time. We have only spoken once in those 4 weeks. I think I told you all I received a text from him at two weeks that said "I am trying to get us back together".
It does feel very forced. I am getting less interested in whether I have contact from him because I am trying to focus on me. The key word is trying. However, I struggle with how he could just turn off.
I do not have a pet and I would LOVE one. I had a cat for 20 years. However, between animal allergies as an adult and the amount of time I out of the house each day, I do not think it would be fair to the animal.
