Hi Jim. Sounding ok. The work thing is good. If you can get a decent review during your hardest times them that great

Your EXW sounds like she has issues. I often wonder if the WAS over thinks all this as much as us. Your W not coming I to the house feels like she is trying to punish you through punishing herself I could understand if there was a traumatic experience or the like in the past linked to the house but she left for other reasons so who knows.

Re moving forward. This is so personal that I can't even offer advice is there any hobbies that you ever wanted to try ? Any places you would like to visit. Dublin for example. I would love to meet up a discuss each other's W !!!

On the dating thing , I have dabbled but it was not for me The lady was very pretty , very intelligent and seemed interested but it wasn't W and I suppose it never will be. I think it's a case of getting out there and meeting people. Your still a young man and you'll come accross that someone special one day

Questioning your self and your life is a good thing because it means your living for now and not dwelling in the past

Take care Jim. , Rd
