Hey y'all. Last thread here: Claire's dozen: #12

A few recent highlights:
I had an awesome GAL weekend-- girl's trip out of town!

I've decided, for the time being, anyway, to pull back a bit from H. No more responding to non-emergency emails right away. Trying to keep it to once/day.

I had a bit of a setback where I realized I was not detached enough, and probably swung over to the "cold" side of interaction... but I'm working on my "you are my work colleague with whom I have a friendly, but totally professional, non-emotionally-connected relationship" attitude.

Reading MWD's, Gottman, Marriage 365 FB and twitter posts are both inspiring and frustrating. I keep fighting the urge to forward them to WAH/STBX. But I know that would not have the desired effect. Trying to focus on how they can inspire ME for my future relationships, and not get bogged down in trying to save this one.

Thanks y'all. Reading your stories keeps me sane and honest.
