Thanks Busting, Job, and TL. It is great to come here and find posts that validate what I’m also thinking. I get discouraged sometimes, and it is good to hear other opinions. I cannot get it anywhere else, because my family and my friends would immediately jump to a conclusion that there is nothing I should be hoping for and I should D him already.

Job, it always amazes me how you are right on the topic and right with your predictions. I had the similar feelings and thoughts that after trying to avoid any contact with me for months (because he didn’t want to hurt me, LOL) he just could not help it but to be around me on that weekend. And then he got scared that he let his “guard down”. I could not describe it better than this.

TL, I actually I do enjoy the distance. And I feel more confident every day that I will be just fine without him. I have my moments sometimes, and this is where this board is very helpful.

I just re-read the e-mail that my GF (mutual friend from vacation home place) sent to me a few days ago. She mentioned that some our other mutual friends were visiting for a few days. And it just hit me... These are the people I spent a weekend with back in October, who I went to the hike with (where I held a tarantula) and then played golf with (for the first time in my life – actually played the course.) I’m absolutely sure H spent some time with them last week. And I’m almost certain they told him about that weekend in October and how much fun we all had. These friends a two couples who like me a lot and who were shocked to find out when H left.

So, this could be another insult to the injury for H, LOL. He must have been processing all this info. I’m dying to find out about how it went with them.
