Hey Jim,

Sounds like you're doing well! Good for you.

In regards to the text reply - pretty good I think. I like Edz' alternate version, too.

I think my reasons for holding back on dating are similar to Edz'. My door is still wide open to H so dating is problematic on 2 levels: (1) It wouldn't be fair to the other person, and (2) it would be that much more confusing for my poor little head if H were to want back in. I do think that I can do the work to get me over these hurdles but for now I am holding off. This logical self is fighting against my emotional self that deeply misses connection and affection though.
