Did Not See It

I guess a lot of these could be considered GAL. My IC had me make up goals I’ve thought about doing over the years I never did for one reason or another. None of these my W would have ever asked me not to do so it really wasn’t my marriage that held me back. Some of these are “one off” things to do (getting a tattoo, running the bridge) and I don’t consider them a GAL. Other ones like going back to school and learning another language would be considered a GAL, but IMO goals and GAL can intertwine.

I’m already reading lots of books on multiple subjects to include improving my marriage techniques, a feel good handbook, and some books I’m reading just to lose myself in fiction. I haven’t turned on the TV in days. I would list the books but I know it’s against board policy to mention them. I’ve already joined a few social clubs and I’ve gone out and socialized already and this weekend I am going on more outings. I also think setting a goal for vaporware ideas (in my words) of getting a best friend would seem superficial. Meeting new people and possibly making good friends sounds okay, but to say my goal is to make a best friend seems fake to me. Just like finding a wife. It will just happen. I do realize I have to put myself out there to at least give it a chance.
