Things are still going well! We are still taking things slow. Hanging out on the weekend, and communicating every day. She tells me she loves me all the time and that she misses me when we don't see each other during the week. So far, so good!
I have gained a little more insight into the mind of a WAS through our conversations. I'm hoping some of you can take something positive from what I've found.
Again, the WAS IS thinking about you. There were periods of time during NC that I was convinced WAS didn't give a damn about me. She was posting pics on FB, smiling, going places etc. Turns out she was miserable. In fact, one photo she took of herself stood out. She was at her nieces dance recital. She posted a selfie looking so happy, carefree, and excited about life without me. She told me on Saturday night during our date, that she actually "lost it" during the recital, started crying so hard she had to excuse herself to the bathroom.
She also shared other instances where she really struggled. During my period of NC, as many of you remember, I thought she had completely forgotten about me. Not the case.
Something else I've learned is that sitches can turn around so very quickly! I'm amazed at how we went from NC, to contact every other week, to dating, to her telling me she loves me all the time.
To my fellow LBS's... don't give up. There is hope. There aren't guarantees. But until you reach the point where you no longer care, keep fighting the good fight! Things can and do change.
