Newby here, desperate for some advice (thread 2)

[JRuss]

Thanks, Buxom. I hadn't thought about how taking a psyche course might be perceived by her. It's really a topic I'm interested in having been in IC now for about 15 months, and she actually said "that's cool" when I showed her my acceptance letter and told her what I was thinking of taking,though, so I'll probably go through with it. I didn't take any of those courses back when I was an undergraduate, so it'd likely be a 101-type intro deal, and I'm not sure I'd get anywhere close to being able to analyze any of what's going on in her head .

ForGump -- yeah, a definite gutpunch and hard to know what's right. It makes detaching harder, and that was already something I don't think I've made any real progress with. But under the believe nothing of what they say doctrine, I'm not at all sure she really means it's completely "meaningless" for her. And I hate to think of myself hitting the dating scene when/if this marriage ends some time from now if I'm coming off a full multi-year cold streak. My desperation would be palpable, and women would probably run away in terror
