I hate the 14th.

He told me about his "friendship" on the 14th, exactly one month following our anniversary.

So, today marks 8 months since he told me about his other friend.

It also marks one month since I've stopped talking to him about it...new beginnings, I guess.

Still, spending the day feeling nauseated and out of control. Have to pull it together by tonight. Went for a long run today (training for two marathons this fall) and realized that one of my 180s will be praising him. The man is desperate for positive feedback, (he sent me an email today from a co-worker about a photograph that he took last week and mailed to everyone since he missed a phone call). He has told me that OW filled this void for him..."She's like a faithful puppy!"

(Sigh)

So - give him positive feedback while distancing and not being a doormat. How do I do THAT? Too soon????

Sometimes this all feels like it's too much. Sometimes it really is a wonder that I just don't run away!!!
