Thanks Sotto. I try to not keep second guessing W but it is an easy trap to fall into.GAL is a bit up and down at the moment. I'm preparing for various races including a half marathon! I'm off to a big concert with friends next week and taking S to a basketball game as well. Next weekend I'm meeting some friends for a Saturday night meal. I'm snowed under with extra work for the next month or so which keeps me busy. I'm also thinking of applying for a more senior post in a secondary job I do. Despite all this I haven't really moved to improve my social life, I'm going to have a lot of free time in July/August and I haven't really made too many plans to fill it. I miss having a woman to share my life with but while W still occupies my thoughts I can't really move on. At least having S with me gives me something to focus on and work colleagues/ friends have been great in keeping me going. Reading other people's sitches I really can't complain.
