Uphill, I have just started reading your threads so please excuse me for not knowing as much as others. First I want to say that you are doing awesome!
I saw this on the last page and if you don't mind, thought I would leave a comment on it:

So, don't look at it as we will repeat the same dynamics. You at least are aware of most of these, and will not let you go down that road. Starting over (it won't be a true new romance, but give it as much of that as possible) is the chance to change the dance.
If you two can begin that dance again, you will be given a beautiful gift. The old relationship is dead and gone and no matter how much the two you try, there will never be any going back to the way it was...its impossible. However, a new, stronger, and better one can arise out of the old ashes. Friendship and love is the foundation of it all - rebuild that and the door will open.
As for dating someone else, I guess it really depends on you. In my case, as long as I am working on or trying, or whatever, then I personally wouldn't do it. That will only come when the door is closed. But that's just me...

There are moments in this life when you are so confident in the rightness of your actions, that not even for a second do you consider the option that you might be wrong.
