It does still hurt but only a little bit, nowhere near what it did.
I find it strange how well we can get on face to face when we are not in an R. I was sat across from her last night thinking she's a decently nice person.
She respects me and it's so easy going. As soon as it turns to R the resentment, expectations and demands come out and it goes pear shaped. Just writing this right now makes me realize how much of this is W and not me nowadays. I'm not saying I don't have faults, I do and will work on them more.
The work I have done on myself has paid off. I was listening to an audiobook in the car. It covers a lot of confident based stuff. I remember listening to it after W left and thought I would never get there, I didn't have it in me. Listening to it last night (15 months later) and I'm nearly there. A lot of what is discussed I already feel like that, it's a great feeling and that great feeling pumps up my confidence again. Perpetual confidence building!
This week: - Finish 'Breaking Bad' - Get haircut at new mens barbers. - Gym, running, martial arts and swimming. - Weekend to myself. - Out on Saturday night with friend. - Sleep in. - Get S1's birthday presents. - Whatever else comes my way.....
Feeling good today!
