Incoming III (The DB Journey gains steam?)

I don't think you did so bad. I wouldn't discuss the OM with her at all. It seems as if you accept it as OK. If think that, she might too. So cut that out.

Is she still with the OM? Why not go on the trip if he's not around?

I understand all the pain too. Just remember you will have ups and downs, but by detaching you start to limit those down days and not be affected by everything. It will help protect you from the pain. It will help to keep you from pursuing someone who doesn't want you, and in turn make you stronger and more desirable.

Today, use your physical actions to manipulate your feelings. Seriously. Put both hands up in the air like you just hit the game winning home run in the World Series. And yell like you did too. Do that for a couple minutes. Make yourself smile and hold it. You can make yourself feel better and realize that you are in control of your happiness. Part of NGS recovery is letting go of the things you can't control to work on the things you can. You can do this.
