I wouldn't bite off more than I could chew in these fragile first days.

I feel your pain, though, mdu, I really do.

Right now, though, I'd focus on building POSITIVES in your M. Positive experiences and positive memories. I'd encourage you - especially while things are so fragile and you are (very understandably) on an(other) emotional roller coaster - to steer clear of OW. Why poke that bear right now?

It really comes down to what you think you can handle - and how you think you'd feel during and after.

The last thing anyone would want for you is to see your focus switched from your M to OW, who - as zew has accurately said - "is already road kill." And I'd hate to see it send you into a spiral.

Then again, I think you're demonstrating a lot more "emotional stability," if you will, lately.

Sit on it, and I bet you'll come up with the answer. smile
