hey hi-

yeah- trusting. what was that again???? what i am now- dawn.

IT IS NOT ME. IT IS stressful to go around being not-me in response to not-h.

well, let me say it's getting easier- but then i realize i'm walkin around not talkign- not makign contact - and i think yuck- what an awful way to be and to treat another person and what if it sticks and i becom this - like him- terse- self-involved (only) - ALLLLL ABOUT ME.

it's such a weird life- i would LOVE to just feel like i can be me- and be liked for it. i think that's the big deal with me- he's not awful- but he's not nice or feelin affection for me either-

i still hate it- i'm not sure we ever get rid of that feeling- the resentment at being replaced as the object of their affection.

i know- pma- gal- etc. got it- doin it- BUT - not feelin any magic about it-

life seems too short to live this way. i think i am honestly and sadly reachign same point as you-

HOWEVER - UNLIKE YOU- i have not one shred of faith in anything h says- particularly financial. he's said and even signed a little note - saying he would never force me to move out of nj house- i could always have a roof over my head.

i thnk - probably as they date and get back in the mainstream of other lives- they need money for it- THEIR LIFE - AND will forget i exist probably.

it's something i cannot bank on- i worry ab it about your h - and him doing or being the same. it's that darn thing i read bout d and man's income goes up like 45% or something like that and the woman's goes down like 65%. THAT WORRIES ME.

I'M Not at all fancy- i do like to eat sometimes and so forth. only soo many corners that one can cut and still exist.

anyway- otherwise can feel self detachign- heart does not rip open when i even think of him w/ow. that's something - rite?

i kind of hate to let go and not feel the pain- it signifies something like caring- what if when that is gone i really do not want to ever see his face again- what if what if wat if - huh? no answers are there?

don't have much to say this a.m- philosophical bout it when he's around allll the time. the dysfunction in my face minute to minute- it's soo wierd. can see how you've gotten to here- want away no matter what.

hope your day is a good one- oh yeah- i forgot your h has done a big spin & turnaround- what is new with that i wonder- i'll go look at your thread. the uncertainty must drive you up a wall -

good luck today man-
