xW is still feeling "entitled," asking for yet more stuff, even though the asset list is settled. She still needs the custody schedule I made, so I'll give that to her to avoid confusion.
I realize I had almost entirely female friends prior to meeting xW. I've reconnected with a few of them now, and I still get along with females better than males, not sure why.
FF#3, I was good friends with when I was about 16. She just got ahold of me, and is already hitting on me something fierce. I am not interested in anything more than a friendship with her, ever. I guess I have to practice setting boundaries.
FF#2, I was good friends with at about 18. The friendship is going well, I'm not interested in dating her, she doesn't seem to have any interest in dating me. I plan to do some stuff with her and her kids this summer at her mom's house where we used to hang out.
FF#1, I was good friends with from 4th grade through about 10th. She is cute, intelligent, friendly. I have a pseudo-date with her on Sunday. The 2 of us planned a boat ride, stop at a restaurant, etc. She might be filling a void for me more than a codependent should have that void filled?
I told my kids I had a date. I realized afterwards that I had a hidden agenda (hoping it gets back to xW), and that it wasn't very nice. Oddly the kids were fine with it.
From one of the threads from Cadet I think it was, it says "if you have to ask yourself if you are ready to date, then you are not ready to date." I'm not asking myself that question, in fact I am suddenly excited about it. A month ago the idea of a date was quite scary. I think one thing that makes this less intimidating is that I already know this girl very well. We can go do something fun and comfortable as friends, and see how it goes.
