BH....thank you for the kind words. You never know who reads and follow ups on your sitch's but hopefully I have been able to pay it back and inspire some others.

I am excited for what the future holds, I really believe the next half of my life is going to be awesome and I am going to find an amazing partner to share it with. That makes me really smile!

The crazy thing is that I don't see the same excitement from my STBXW. She was more excited when she first moved out than what she is showing now. I assume that when she moved out that was really when the D happened in her eyes so now that initial rush no longer exists. If that is the case then she has fallen into the same patterns as she did before with her moodiness, depression and really never knowing what person your going to get day to day. Which is the same stuff she has battled for a long time.

She had a real crappy childhood and unfortunately it is rearing it's ugly head later in life. I have empathy and compassion for her and really wish her nothing but the best.
