I'm liking mozza's more thematic updates so i'm going to copy
Interactions/relationship stuff A couple of interactions with W 2 texts from her, very functional simple messages, in both cases i responded but got nothing back (not that i asked questions).
One was asking if i can pick the kids up on wednesday evening instead of thursday evening. I said yes even though actually its tricky but it means i get to see them 24hrs earlier so i'll make it work. Not great on the detachment front because i immediately wondered why and assumed it must be OM related. I cant know that but do know it must be because she has plans.
Saw her twice today for the swimming arrangements. Both occassions there was no hostitility but it was clear she was aiming for speed and efficiency with as little interaction as possible. I didnt stall but did spend a little a minute or two talking to D3 at both exchanges as that is the whole of my time with her for a nearly 7 day period.
I would say that she seemed to be indifferent to me, but i guess if i was indifferent I would still say hello and goodbye etc. This was just no interaction at all. I have more conversation with delivery guys.
She gave me a letter to sign, to resolve the post redirection finally. I've not chased her on this but it needed doing otherwise the kids cant get post anywhere. You could say i've enforced a boundary on this one. (sarcastic) Yay.
So not detached enough yet, but feeling more accepting that my future relationships lie elsewhere.
GAL Report I've been pretty busy at work which has been good because i'm really starting to feel more like my old work self and have remembered that despite all the nonsense at home and work i do really like my job.
My foot is much better so i've kept up my near daily yoga and have been for a couple of short runs. I also have a potential new playing partner for squash at work.
On Thursday I went to Ceroc (Vanilla, check me out ). I very nearly didnt using excuses like 'well i cant go every week' trying to justify me not going. In the end i just decided i would go because even if i only went this week it was better than sitting at home by myself.
So i went. I had a really good time, and i think i did alright. I definitely plan to go again. Most people said really nice things about me doing well and for i think the first time in my life someone told me i have 'amazing posture'. I chatted randomly to people and got chatting to one woman in particular for a bit.
Friday night not so good, I let myself take too long at work so i didnt go to another class i was thinking about. I also know deep down that it was deliberate on my part so i had an excuse.
Yesterday spent the day sorting stuff round the house and played online games with my brother for most of the afternoon (he lives a couple of hours away).
Today, Swimming, packing and in about 15 minutes i'm headed to Italy for a couple of days.
Both mid 30s, 2 young kids BD 7sep14 XW moved on long ago, now living with OM1 D paperwork in progress
