Hello Everyone!!

Been so busy this week!! No break sadly but as strange as this sounds my life is beginning to feel like my life again. Nothing makes you feel more alive than negotiating for a car. Treat the salesman like he is an MLCer - I understand that you want to rip me off and keep all the profit for you - but I stood firm.

WR, our last posts came at exactly the same time, sorry I missed you!

FY, too funny. Unfortunately this experience for all it has taught me I am still more impatient than not. Better buy a shovel with a diamond tip or get one if those special dwarves' axes.

Bright, that was the first thing that struck me. I have been barred details of his life but he tells me small one bedroom apartment. Well he may not be living with her but I don't know if they are still together.

Bring on the bets!!

Heather, I do feel better. When I found out he moved without telling me I was so Angry. And then the anger melted away and I found myself in a very different place than I was. So when the texts did come, I had just as much fun posting as I did answering the texts. I won't say I don't miss him but I am not longing for him nor to hear from him (which he likely senses, see below!). But I did learn to think before I react and to answer with my head not my heart.

Nero, I do agree with you but know what? I no longer feel , with him being so far away, that I need to express my hurt. If it ever came that he wanted back in my life in any significant way, that will be the time. But right now I think it's just a waste of breath. I think it must be harder for those of you with your Hs still in your face all the time.

MM, Linda, MizJ and NLT (and everyone else reading along), MM asked if texted again. Yep. Today. Only a week since his last text.

I am not used to this! I never sent a reply to his last text. So I guess he is "pursuing me"? I wonder what is up? Conveniently used the car as a topic. Is there trouble in GF paradise? And now he thinks he can just return to me? I feel strangely removed from all this. I am still surprised by the contact and I will reply as I would for anyone, really.

I am feeling like me again. And I am glad.

I will keep you posted!!
