So it's been about month since I thought W was going to file and serve me and still no word. She treats me like a neighbor, which is good I guess, and still seems like she wants to keep tabs on me even though our relationship is basically dead at this point. I tried to hug her a couple weeks ago and she was visibly uncomfortable with that. Oh well.
I've come to a point in this whole journey where I'm excited about stuff going on my life regardless of W or M. Let me list what's been going on:
- Having a great time connecting with my kids. They are so special to me and I am absolutely grateful for all the precious time we spend together half of each week. They're just so so great I can't say it enough. I have 3 Ds and for a father to have a close relationship with them like I do is absolutely golden in my mind. Sure, they've got some things to work on, but so do I.
- I've been putting a lot of extra effort into my career lately and may have an amazing opportunity for myself soon. We'll see how it goes. W caught wind of it through the kids and now asks about it every time we talk. Why does she care?
- Making a lot of new friends: men and women. I know I'm going to be OK if and when the time arises to move onto a new relationship. I still miss my family, but if D eventually gets rolling for real I'll be OK either on my own or with someone new. I'm not afraid of not having W in my life anymore. I don't know the new version of her anyhow, so it doesn't really matter. The old W is gone - at least for now.
- Tapping into some really interesting psychological / spiritual lessons. I met a few women recently who shared some fascinating insights in this regard with me as well. I hope to connect with them more soon to share and learn more. We'll see.
- My new IC is awesome and he's teaching me some new things about myself.
- Basically 100% in control my finances and really digging some new tools I'm using to manage my money.
- I've got my house pretty well cleaned up. Almost done getting the outside ready for winter. I have a bit more to do in this department, but it's coming together.
- I've got stuff planned every night for the rest of the week. Next week I'll learn more about that possible opportunity I mentioned earlier. Really excited about that at the moment. It will be a game changer for me if it works out. Will keep you all posted.
