I am glad you saw my post as I intended. We are facing some of, if not the most difficult times of our lives, things can get miscommunicated easily on a format like this. A lot of topics can be polarizing such as dating
FWIW, I believe that all our paths will eventually and inexorably lead to moving on, to dating someone new. I will clarify this a bit. Given enough time that would happen, so it becomes a very personal choice and realization of when. If our lifespan was 1000 years, I don’t think many would stand for decades or centuries. It does make me wonder what our vows would be if granted such a long life.
I am pleased to see your choice and acceptance of events. It was a good feeling to read how you had the same thoughts regarding not breaking someone’s heart and when you can move on, the not keeping W as plan B.
An interesting view I have is that moving on doesn’t exclude the possibility of dating EXW in the future, she is just part of the potential people you could possible date.
Moving on is a change of your mindset. Dating or not is irrelevant, you have changed. Perhaps a door has closed for you.
I think you have already start a new chapter. The future is unknown, those pages are blank, write a great life Kyh.
Maybe start with - I asked her to join me for a cup of coffee...
Feelings are fleeting. Be better, not bitter. Love the person, forgive the sin.
