Sweet Sunny! Yes, I really shouldn't date to prove anything to anyone. It's been almost a year since I moved out.

I have spent a lot of time by myself and GAL quite a bit, with friends but mostly on my own.

I don't know if this is the wrong perspective to have but I see dating as a part of GAL, now that I am ready to get on with my life.

Truth be told, I had an opportunity to start a relationship in the months leading to D, but I couldn't do it, not even to spite the X. Now, I am feeling comfortable with the idea.

But I won't rush into anything that I am not comfortable with, I promise!

You can call me Dory/ Grl.

As a wise fish once sang,"Just keep swimming!"

It's no use to go back to yesterday because I was a different person then.
