Old thread (Rebuilding my life #2)

Journaling:

I understand your views on the matter. I agree with Ginger too, but I also hope my next partner is someone who can look for the kids if need to go to etc see a doc instead of having to rely on my XW.

So I spend the morning being responsible for my D's practise (with one mom) and it was fun! I don't know why I haven't done that previously. I am amazed how much more social I can be if I really want to. We laughed a lot.

Do I feel sad for my marriage? Yes, but I think I'm really approaching the point where I can see the bright future properly, and this feels different than previously. I spent some time reading statistics and other posts elsewhere in the Internet and it truly opened my mind to step into XWs shoes to analyze the marriage she had. I feel empathic for her that she had to do this.

D is here now and we are having super fun. I got her to open up a bit emotionally as she doesn't want to share any of her feelings or issues. She nodded after that it feels good to talk. She's been feeling down since S was born because mom and dad are more with S. Her mood really brightened when I said that it's a phase and told her that she is special to us. I mentioned too that she is a big sis, S is going to keep her as a role model which D really liked to hear. I really hope she can tell me about her feelings going on from here.

Have a good weekend everyone smile
