I was so hoping hoping HOPING you would stop by, and I am so happy you have! Your insight is so incredibly valuable and appreciated. Anyone who has walked this path and would offer advice on the potholes to avoid - OMG I am so grateful for people like you, because it's bloody painful and hard climbing out of these potholes. My life is one giant pothole at the moment.
I have, since the middle of January, not let him see that he affects me anymore. Because he's been so dismissive of any talk of R, and it was hurting me so much to be vulnerable in front of him, I've just clammed up now. I know he's wondering what I'm thinking because he said as much two Fridays ago when I pulled him up on how disrespectful his behaviour was - he said it was good to know what I was thinking.
I don't think WH cares if I am seeing other people. He keeps saying how I am a great person (d4mn right) and I would make someone else really happy (double d4mn right). But it stings that he's happy about losing me.
I am trying to GAL in earnest. Meeting friends for dinner tonight and Thursday night, when WH has S3. Going to plan a birthday party for myself - never did one before because I always preferred to keep things low key.
May I ask what it is you think he says that demonstrates self doubt? I can't see it.
Do you think I should let him attend the birthday party? I wasn't going to at first but after what you and Jeep said it's making me think I should. I've been trying to do WWJD. I am guessing Jesus would invite him.
I do want you to suggest things to me, so please, suggest away! Your experience is hard won and frankly, if with your guidance I can avoid one more pothole, I would be so grateful.
