I've gone dark for the most part. Just passed the 5 week mark ilybnilwy. W is making lots if new friends and always on the go. There seems to be some mania to the situation. I hope things settle down for her soon. Anyway, I've continued to lose weight and I'm looking pretty darn good. Get lots of compliments from coworkers an notice women "checking me out" more frequently. I saw w today and I was wearing a shirt that I bought 3 years ago but wasn't able to wear because it was too small. I told w at the time I bought it that I was going to wear that shirt one day. It took losing 35 pounds to get to that point but I did it. Today she didn't seem to take notice. She was friendly to me and we talked briefly. She has a jeep and she wanted to show me some things that she had changed. I left with the kids shortly after. I dropped the kids off later and she was outside when I pulled up. as I was helping my son out of the car I noticed that she kept looking my direction. She never looked away. After I helped my son out she asked if she could get my opinion on something. She wanted my opinion on where she should place a sticker on her jeep. I gave my opinion without much fanfare. She held up another sticker to show me but didn't say anything. I asked her what it said and she told me it was a Celtic word. The name of some moon goddess that signifies rebirth and transformation. I said cool and was on my way shortly after. I always put way too much thought into what her actions or in actions mean. Maybe I'm still having trouble detaching. I'm just wondering if Going dark is still the best strategy for me. Would any of you take her actions as being a good sign, neutral, or am I putting too much thought into this? Also, her birthday is next Friday and I'm wondering if I should wish her happy birthday. Just a simple text. Not I love you , etc.., just happy birthday. Any advice is greatly appreciated.
